> I AM CURRENTLY TAKING VISTERIL 50MG, XANAX 2MG, HYDROXYZ 500MG, AND ALSO CELEXA 40MG. THE VISTERIL DOES NOT SEEM TO BE WORKING NEITHER DOES THE VISTERIL. I HAVE BEEN ON XANAX FOR 7 MONTHS. TO IS THE ONLY THING THAT SEEMS TO HELP ME FOR ANXIETY. I REALLY DON'T SEE WHY I AM ON THE CELEXA, I AM NOT DEPRESSE, I HAVE ANIETY, AN I'M ALWAYS VERY ANXIOUS, AND GET AGERVATED VERY EASILY, FOR NO REASON. I HATE TO HANG OUT WITH PEOPLE ALL THE TIME.MY HUSBAND AND I HAVE ALOT OF FRIENDS BUT I NEVER FEEL LIKE GOING OUT OR I JUST DON'T WANT TO. I HAVE A 7 MONTH OLD LITTLE BOY AND A 2 1/2 LITTLE GIRL. MY CHILDREN MAKE ME VERY HAPPY BUT SOMETIMES I FEEL LIKE I'M GOING TO EXPLODE. ME AND MY HUSBAND HAVE HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE SEX ISSUE. I AM STARTING THERAPY TOMMARROW, AND I'M CURRENTLY WORKING ON THE SEX THING, WE HAVE A PERFECT MARRIAGE OTHER THAN THAT. EXCEPT I LIKE TO SLEEP AS MUCH AS I CAN WHEN I GET A CHANCE. DOES THIS SOUND NORMAL TO BE ON ALL THESE MEDICINES. ARE THESE SIDE EFFECTS?? CAN ANYONE HELP ME!!! I HAVE ALSO BEEN ON PAXIL, ZOLOF,AND ABOUT 3 OTHER MEDICINES. I HAVE SHORT TERM MEMORY LOSS ALOT. WHAT SHOULD I DO???
I have taken Vistaril, for nausea, and for anxiety. I noticed a few strange things after I had taken it for a month or so. I began to have trouble distinguishing dreams from reality, it was really frightening at times. I also had a crazy delusion or hallucination, I'm not sure what to call it. It was like a dream, aside from the fact that I was awake and walking around the whole time. My memory bagan to falter, as well. I would forget I had taken the vistaril and just grab a few more. In retrospect, I had taken an entire months supply in less than 2 weeks. I made the decision to stop taking it then!
The drugs you're on definitely contribute to your desire to sleep. If you really feel too sedated, you should discuss the possibility of changing meds with your pdoc. Good luck!
