Well, 3 of them are extremely low dose. Lithium is basically a supplement or me at 225mg, and 75mg Trazodone and 37.5 Venlafaxine. It is the only thing that helps, because the dose is so low that it doesn't replace one problem with another. If I took more, I wouldn't consider it as help because then other problems would kick in. So that is luck that it works (a little bit) at such a low dose

Seroquel and Zyprexa in my regimen are a result of med induced psychosis from Nardil. They work, but they do cause a lot of additional problems!

I think my best bet is to further slowly reduce Seroquel. I know what effects and side effects to expect. I am trying to tackle the weight gain with supplements and careful dosage reduction. And lifestyle!



Seroquel 700mg
Zyprexa 25mg :(
Trazodone 75mg
Venlafaxine 37.5mg
Metformin 2000mg
Lithium 225mg
Blueberries!!! and Orthomolecular
