If you saw my other question youll know about hearing voices and seeing shadowy stuff that isnt there and stuff. (sorry for not picking best answer i didnt log on) Anyway i DID tell my therapist about it and she said she doesnt think I have schizophrenia or anything majorly serious but she isnt sure whats wrong. However in the mean time, to cease these voices etc shes willing to perscribe some “low level antipsychotics” . She said theyre in such a low dose they wont give me side effects except possibly a dry mouth. She stated its only temprorary just to relieve the symptoms so she has the ability to work with me to make it superior permanently. Problem is im worried about taking them, is there any long term affects ill get from taking them for a short while?
Thanks xoxo
Answer:
please don't be scared, even though i totally understand your position.
i was extremely worried about the side effects when they offered them to me (which ones i won't state because it'll make you worry more!) but i thought that i'd rather feel a bit better than not superior and i weighed up that i would give them a shot just to see if they'd work.
in fact the voices (i work for a federation) said that they were going to be absolutely useless, so i took them for the sake of it and because the professionals etc really wanted me to go on them. i am on 10mg zyprexa by the way.
honestly though, the only thing that's happened to me is significant weight gain and tiredness. when you take them first off you’ll become very sleepy so allow for that and depending on which one perhaps a bit of weight gain. it all depends on which one you are going on though.
since you're on a low dosage though, it probably won't be as bad for you. perhaps you'll feel a little exhausted, maybe a bit hungry but the dry mouth is probably all. you will probably begin to feel superior which is good hey =]
i hope that helped you to be a bit more prepared, after all what's there to lose? they dull my voices right down so they don't tell me to do things during the day unless i take the tablets late.
as for long term side effects, perhaps diabetes and lots of weight gain but the fist one is RARE, the second one will apparently plateau to a nice weight.
good luck, you can email me if you want. x
Answer:
Low dose antipsycotics wouldnt have any long term effects. You may feel a bit sedated on them. I know i used to take low dose of risperdone to control mania so i could sleep, and would still feel slightly sedated in the morning….not a horrible side effect, but was noticeable. But like any meds, everyone varies. If you’ve side effects on the first you try, discuss it wout you Dr…..might be the wrong one for you and another would be superior

Answer:
All drugs can have adverse affects, but it depends on the person, what other drugs they may take and so on.
Usually people are OK, the vast majority of the time.
All you can do is make sure that your doctor/therapist knows about any other drugs that are on that could interact with the medication, and also what you may be allergic to.
You should be able to ask them about any concerns that you’ve.

All treatment suggested by the physicians should be tested and approved and quite rightly so.
That makes sense right Obviously it costs vast sums of money to test and approve treatments because of the possible damage to people and the subsequent litigation costing millions of pounds.
drug companies Fund most research By and large only and I mean only look at treatments, which show the promise of good deal of a profit, will even get examined. …….and thus other therapies do not get suggested by your local doctor or hospital. Despite The fact that some of them do have overwhelming benefits some, which have saved needless operations, needless amputations, needless pain and trauma, needless kidney failures and much loss of life.
machine This does not help you does it though. when you are ill and suffering—not hearing about therapies which can help from a person you look up to and trust Have you heard your local physician suggest, Massage Spiritual healing, Knieisiology Herbs, Light therapy,Colour therapy,Regression therapy, Osteopathy,Magnetic devices, Electrical Frequency devices.

Answer:
All medications have side effects. With Quetiapine sedation is a very common side effect but after a while it lessens. If the side effects make you feel awful then you can always come off the medication and the side effects will go. I'm on my 3rd anti-psychotic and with the two I was on before the side-effects disappeared when I came off them.
Talk to the person prescribing the medication and ask your therapist any questions you’ve about the medication and speak to her about your concerns. It can take trial and error to find something that works. When the drs find the right one though it can make a large difference. It's the same with all illnesses whether it's physical or mental, each person responds to different medications although they may have the same symptoms or illness..
