      Treatments

      Abilify Not Working
      It kind of worked, but couldn't really tell. The day I started it; I had the worst case of Tardive Dyskinesia. In other words, My face and jaw were literally knotted-up. Everyone thought I was on some really bad drugs.
      Geodon Not Working
      My face and jaw twisted up with this one too. It was soo bad infact, I chipped a big chunk off My back molar. Due to the grinding imposed!!
      Lamictal Somewhat Helpful
      Working good for now. Keeps Me somewhat stable.
      Risperdal Not Working
      Yet, another bad case of Dyskinesia!!
      Seroquel Working / Worked
      It worked. The only side effect I stopped taking it for was because I was sleeping 15 hours plus-a day!!
      Trileptal Working / Worked
      Very good. I love this one. I have no income though, and have it hard to get back on. It really hit the core of My problems.
      Wellbutrin Working / Worked
      Severe Tardive Dyskinesia.
    • Close Cocaine Addiction & Recovery

      I and My Husband've abused drugs now for 4 long years. I've been sober now for the past month, and it feels so good to be free. I only hopeWe can keep it up.

      Treatments

      Narcotics Anonymous (NA) Considering
      Considering going back to stay clean. It helps, but no miracle like they make it out to be. The only miracle is being sober and alive for another day.
    • Open Infertility

      I have two children with My ex-husband, but the problem is Me and the new hubby have been trying for a child(at least one) now for the past 5 years. No luck. We've tried and tried. He's never had His sperm tested, and I was on Depo-Provera, which caused excessive bleeding and cancerous cells in My tubes.

      Had severe Tardive Dyskinesia.
      Lexapro Working / Worked
      Very good drug. Helps wake You up the med induced sleep from the night before, too. Works wonderfully.
      Paxil Working / Worked
      Good medication. Almost as good as Prozac.
      Prozac Working / Worked
      Best anti-depressive I've ever used. Unfortunately, My doctor no longer prescribes it, since I'm poor, and I only get the sample packs.

    • Open Psoriasis
      Affected Areas: Psoriasis of the Skin

      I have pustular psoriasis all over My hands and feet. Even My fingers. It got so bad before that I went to the ER, since they got infected. From all the cracking, and peeling. You know what? They didn't even know what it was. They said it was probebly a staph infection, or strep. This was before I learned what it was. I learned online through researching psoriasis more indeptly. I've had flaking psoriais on My face since I was very young.

    • Open Bereavement
      Type: Loss of a Child

      I lost My first born child-a boy, at 17 years old. He was born with many problems, including fetal anencephaly, spina-bifida, and no stomach. Nothing is worse than giving birth, knowing they're dying, and holding them til they die in Your arms. It really messed with My head, and still does.
