I have family members and friends who ride the dosage roller coaster. Constantly being “adjusted” and are perpetually adding new fun cocktails to keep “fix” things caused by meds.

It’s women who are affected most - they tend to articulate better and are more willing to open up to the shrinks - and consequently get experimented with drugs and dosages more.

One friend literally ballooned in weight by over 180lbs in a span of 2 years and her doc doesn’t seem to think it could be the meds. He puts her on wild assortments of antidepressants (lexapro), anti-psychotics, sleep aids and appetite suppressants. Worse still, she trusts him.

Of course. Big Drugs considers us nothing but lab rats that can put more money in their pockets.
