Does this sound like a lot of meds? (tablet happy doctor!)
Okay, so 6 years ago I started taking citalopram. Since then, several things have been added and increased and now I'm on:
60mg citalopram (anti depressant)
75mg Amitriptaline (Anti d, but taken to help with sleep)
500mg Quitiapine (never had the reason for this explained to me, think it was just to fob me off.)
8mg diazepam (over the last year its been between 12mg and 4 mg a day.)
And then theres pain meds. Does that sound like a lot, especially as:
1) I'm not pyschotic
2) I'm not depressed!
I saw my doctor today and asked if I could come off some of them and he said no :( He said Quitiapine is a longer acting form of diazepam... but I really dont feel as though I get the same affects from it as I do from diazepam.
Hmmmm
