I'm just about sure that my meds are all included in my signature but here they are anyway -

Symbyax
Lamictal
Wellbutrin XL
Vyvanse
Klonopin

I would really like to get off of the Vyvanse. It's prescribed for ADHD but it also helps my mood so while I try to get off of it, I'm worried it may make me unstable and I'm currently feeling pretty good. I don't need it for work or school anymore so, I don't see why I should continue to take it. Been on it since 2015 and I quit or lost my job in 2017 because of a depressive episode.
I feel like I take stimulating meds to get up in the morning and get going and then sedating meds to bring me down at night. It's starting to not make sense to me to do this to myself. I want to self regulate a little better.

I take Gabapentin for fibromyalgia which is new diagnosis. I don't want to take it either but I feel like crap if I don't.
I take Synthroid for hypothyroid.

Symbyax 12/50mgs
Lamictal 200mg
Wellbutrin XL (or ForFivO) 450mg
Vyvanse 70mg
Klonopin 2mg

Synthroid 88mcg
Gabapentin 300mg 3x a day and to increase soon

I loathe being on so many meds. I can't stand it.
