Meds take awhile to work (up to 6, 8 weeks), not sure how long you have been on yours. Is this the first time you've been on meds? It can take awhile to find the right cocktail. I'm 20 years in the psych system and still looking for the right combination, though the meds have been adjusted enough that they help more than they did in the beginning and with fewer side effects. It is not an exact science. And if you've had other things like life stress or illness (even something as simple as a sinus infection), I think it affects the whole equilibrium of everything.
