What med did you not feel relief from? For me, it was Zoloft. Gave me too low of platelets and felt horrible migraines.

Fluoxetine/Prozac.
Bloody hell those pills were a nightmare. =/
I'M GONNA FIGHT 'EM ALL
A SEVEN NATION ARMY COULDN'T HOLD ME BACK.......
Wellbutrin, Concerta, and Adderall. I don't know which one was the worst but they were all pretty bad.
I suffer from panic disorder with panic attacks. A psychiatrist that I saw just one time put me on Wellbutrin. 30 minutes after taking it, I was climbing the walls with the worst anxiety ever. My current psychiatrist told me that she only uses Wellbutrin on patients that are so depressed that they can't get off the couch. She would never give Wellbutrin to a person only suffering from an anxiety disorder, like me... The wrong doctor prescribing the wrong medication is HELL! Thank God I found the right doctor and the right medication...
Pristiq. I became manic / hypomanic and I also did not go to the bathroom for a fortnight.
SSRI's make me feel like shit.
Beating anxiety this year
seroquel
Wellbutrin gave me something like absence seizures. A manager once found me lying on the floor with my eyes open, but I had no recollection of blanking out and falling out of my chair. I assume it was only a few minutes. She thought I just decided to lay there, when I came around I heard her saying, "what are you doing on the floor?". I was pretty confused. A few days before that, I was sitting up in bed waiting for my ex to come over. It takes 5 minutes to drive from his house to mine. He texted me he was on his way and I replied. Right after that I had a "seizure". He found me sitting up with my eyes open and following him, but not responding to anything he was saying. Weird. So, Wellbutrin was crossed off the list for good.
Seroquel was pretty bad for me. Prozac was also pretty bad. Seroquel just made me want to sleep 24/7, Prozac turned me into an absolute zombie. I didn't feel anything. It was the most horrible feeling in the world, worse than depression even.
You're going to lose people in your life, and realize that no matter how much time you spent with them or how often you told them you loved them, it will never seem like it was enough.
Hug the ones you love.
I don't know why but Trazadone? It did the job of allowing me to sleep, but the headaches where worse than any hangover I've ever had I was extremely sensitive to movement, minor sounds, as well as lighting. I was on Zoloft, Abilify and Trazadone.
Also when I was 8-9 I hated the ADHD medication I was placed on. I would always get in disagreements with my mom before school about not wanting to take it. Still had to though. If I dodged a dose at home the school nurse would make me take it. They just made me feel really upset.
trilafon
When I was first "rediagnosed" as SA in the summer of 2004, my doctor actually questioned between that or bipolar disorder. I was given Lithium (yes - it's like eating a battery!), and it took what OCD I thought I had and blew it up. I would check things 10 and 20 times - I guess my attention span became that short.
After a week of taking the med, I told that doctor that I just had to stop taking it. Something was definitely wrong. She then tried Lexapro - did nothing, and then Paxil. I have been there ever since. Actually, I was up to 50mg/day at my worst point. Today, I am at 20.
