Sorry to be a board hog and post two new topics in one day...

I feel like my psychiatrist has me taking too many medications, and I just want to know how many meds YOU are all on.

The current cocktail is Abilify, Trileptal, Wellbutrin, Lexapro, BuSpar, and Klonopin (as needed). That's SIX psych meds, and it seems a bit excessive to me.

Is it working? Well, sorta. But despite being on two antidepressants my mood still hovers on the lower end of the spectrum. I'm also tired a lot, and I've been gaining weight because I never feel full when I eat.

I'm out of the Abilify and I'm inclined to not refill it. It would be the first time I had EVER gone against the psychiatrist's instructions, but it's the one I think is most likely behind the weight gain.

I have a decent relationship with this psychiatrist, but I think he's a little too eager to prescribe me more and more medications. I don't exactly like being a walking pharmacy.

Thoughts?
