look, I'm getting tired of this, people openly speculating on what the human body can and cannot handle, and more and more I read people sounding superior because they won't let certain substances touch their bodies. If you've had bad experiences, fine. If you've had good experiences, fine. Some very lovely people would not be here without some of the substances that have been vilified this very minute. Everyone is different. Don't make one treatment out to be an insidious soul-sucker or even a killer, when you really don't know - maybe some other people find relief in that treatment.
Even worse is when one type of medication is mentioned, followed by 8 responses about how terrible a whole other class of medications can be. In one recent case, a benzodiazepine was mentioned and many people replied about the dangers of SSRI's. Not at ALL the same thing. Irrelevant comparison. Not to mention the fact that people react to different medications and various therapies in different ways.
I understanding coming onto the board and asking general questions about side effects and dosages, but after you do that.. Go see your doctor. No one here can tell you which of your 3 medications has caused you to gain 5 pounds.
