Help "zombie like" medicaions

[Life_and_Death]

not to create another one of those "what does...." "how do i kill..." threads but i am curious


ive seen an alarming amount of people saying that some medications make them zombie like. which ones? im tired of all of this emotional bullshit and i want to look into these to see if i could maybe get one at my next appointment. of course i need to think it could actually be "useful" so i can sell it to my psychiatrist successfully.

Lorazepam 4mg made me really a zombie! Fortunately, I don't take it anymore!

bupropion used to do that to me

I was actually looking into this one. And it "worked"?

Vent (not for you but I won't stop you from reading it. Just letting you know you don't have to)

I just want to stop giving a shit. I'm tired of caring. I'm tired of being hurt. I don't want to care anymore.

Yeah, it zombifies you but it did jack shit for my anxiety.

Same for me! It made me zombie in the sense of just not doing anything, not like "totally out of it". Not doing stuff like paying bills, doing anything minutely useful, that kind of thing. Probably paid $1000 in late payment fees for that bit of "adjusting".

Venlafaxine (Effexor) really makes me like a zombie ‍ Just in the first dose.

I take 375mg of that stuff per day. Talk about sweat.

Benzos, even if highly addictive, are a perfect choice for numbness. Mix them with alco and it's total bliss, since both enchance eachother. Others that made me feel numb were antipsychotics like tiapride and olanzapine.

 

[Life_and_Death]

olanzapine.

this just made me sleep all day lol

 

[Symbiote]

Depakote with Seroquel made me zombie-like. My dosages were 1200mg of Depakote and 1800mg of Seroquel. Shit sucked.

Yeah, it's quite sedating. It was prescribed to me for sleep. The other one (tiapride) was to get the gut wrenching feeling of guilt that fucking my last relationship was causing. They both worked for some time but with some nasty side effects like muscle spasms , restlessness and increased apetite so i discontinued them. Got addicted to benzos + alcohol but i'm out of those now so all that's left is drinking myself senseless on a daily basis. I wish it was easier to get benzos where i am from. I've watched a documentary about the valium epidemic in Ireland where it's sold 20p a pill in the streets. Fuck i wish i was there. I'd be numb 24/7 and probably even give up on CTB.

It made me balloon in weight.

 

[untimelydemise]

olanzapine but shit side effects, um duloxetine and maybe rispiridone

olanzapine but shit side effects, um duloxetine and maybe rispiridone

i was on 20mg olanzapine and the sleepiness passed after a few months and if you take the majoetiy at night. metformin stops the weight gain from it

 

[sadbadpsychogirl]

thorazine and seroquel

 

[Mentalmick]

All these bloody drug names. They sound like Transformers. "Thorazine, roll out!"

 

[Echo]

Rispiridone (Risperdol) made me a zombie. I'd take my pills however many times a day, try watch a movie or tv, then be like, i watched a movie?

That just made me more suicidal

 

[meles_inoris]

I felt nothing but numbness on Risperdal

 

[NegativeSymptoms]

I wish there were pills that make you feel something, because I'm naturally numb and it's very hard to endure.

 

[grungeCat]

Diazepam (Valium) makes me feel... very numb and emotionless. However the most zombie-like state is after risperidone. You feel absolutely nothing, like if you were dead or something lol. I feel too powerless to even think then.

 

[UseItOrLoseIt]

Seroquel for sure. Turned me into a drooling lifeless shell.

 

[us_1999]

I feel like a zombie already without meds... Would meds bring in some change to my life and kick me active?
