i seem to be doing well on high dose supplements (Orthomolecular) with "standard treatment." I'm down to 2 psych drugs--Abilify @ 20mgs and Lamictal @ 200mgs, plus all the vitamins, antioxidants, etc.
my dream would be to be able to ditch the tranquilizer, completely. looking over the Orthomolecular shrinks' case studies...that may or may not be realistic, lol. At least I'm on 20mgs/Abilify, not the 30mgs I was on for way too long. It was...rough...needing a relatively high dose, but also getting dysphoria and anhedonia from the dose. ugh.
on the plus side, 0 EPS, 0 TD, no akakthisia, my mood is better, my anxiety+agitation are OK, and 2 psych drugs (admittedly, heavy-hitters) in today's "polypharmacy" era is...something to be thankful for, I think.
