You are on quite a bit of medication. How do you feel? Do you feel heavy, slow, just out of it? If so you may be on too much. But I wouldn't recommend going off any without a pdoc's supervision.

That does seem like a lot. Have you been seeing a different doctor each time you go? I'm assuming that if you are under the care of just one pdoc, you shouldn't have so many medications. And if you feel medicated, you definitely are not on the right medications.

I feel like a zombie, i have begun to ''mis' dosages of crrtain tablets just so I can feel a bit normal. I see him tomorrow. I think I'm going to ask for a transferal letter.
I need something different, he's a busy man, with a young family, there's another doctor in the practice who's kids are out of varsity, i diverse, but you get the idea. I can't live and work like this anymore Bipolar 1

why would your meds being high indicate that your pdoc hates you? That sounds a little paranoid. Challenge that distorted thinking.
It may just be his style. Maybe he prefers to continue to add medications instead of lowering them or exchanging them for new meds. There are pdocs out there like that. I would also ask for a transfer. A new pair of eyes might be just the thing. Especially since you feel so bad on this much medication.

Some doctors are more conservative than others, and I've seen both. One doc will be quick to add other medications when you even mention any kind of symptom, related or not. Others, like my current pdoc, look at the bigger picture and are not quick to add more but would rather adjust what you're already on. A second opinion couldn't hurt, especially since you feel horrible. Good luck and I hope you feel better!

Well I'm not in such a great place, but see my p doc in about a hour, sick of all the side effects, so haven't been taking my tablets. I know its a bit silly but I'm just desperate.

Definitely get a second opinion. That's a staggering list even for someone with your conditions.
