Agreed; med's did not work well for me either. I recall at Menninger's being given chloral hydrate at night to knock me out so I would sleep as there was one part/entity (and now part of me) who was a night owl and would stay up all night to try to stay safe. That part of me is winning out alot now too due to going back over all the scary stuff.
So, cloral hydrate would knock everyone out. I wanted to lock my door at night too, but they would not let me.
Otherwise, I took antipsychotic med's, antidepressant med's, anxiey med's, mood stabilizers, you name it. Finally, one antidepressant that worked overall, and that was it. Nothing else really worked for all parts.
My T wanted to prescribe a mood stabilizer sometime back again, Lithium, and I said no. I hated taking it before as I got acne all over my back, and I did not think it helped all that much. Maybe I should see about it again. Oh sh*t, that means blood levels too. Do not want. Oh, and one part had seizures and still does. Found scar tissue near or on amigdula, but it might have been from ECT. I had horrible olfactory hallucinations, and they come and go. Also, I had seizures (pre ECT) that caused me to loose my sight at times. I am sometimes having that again. No more migraines, though. Thank you for small favors. I used to get them all the time and thought I would lose my mind. LOL. I sort of did. Got to have some humor here, right?
