I really wonder why are you on so many medication for a single problem. If you are having only depression, then you should be on one medication but in good doses.

Good morning,
We now have medications that do not have the same side effects of the medication for schizophrenia that you mention.

Dear Yubaraj,
Your wife may be having psychotic symptoms also along with depression. Amitriptyline and clonazepam have side effect of sedation. However she is taking rest and getting up for food and toilet. She would have got used to these drugs in 2 days. Now you can give risperidone also. Risperidone does not come as 5. Maybe it is 0.5.
However discuss with your doctor about drowsiness without stopping the drug. You should weigh whether drowsiness is worse or her symptoms are worse.

It is not advisable to take clozapine only for Sleep. There are several other alternatives to use to improve sleep especially if you find risperidone is helping to improve your condition and there are no major side effects. If so Please stay on risperidone and ask your Psychiatrist to add sleeping tablet.

Hi,
please take medication for as long as prescribed and suggested by a doctor. Its not recommended to leave taking it on your own because then again these symptoms can show.
You should show to a psychiatrist and continue with the medicines. Apart from that be active do exercise/yoga/ deep breathing to fight the stressors.
If you are feeling any particular stress you can consult me.

Hi never stop the drugs prescribed by psychiatrist even if you do not have problems. You have to take for a long time (about 5 years) because there is a chance of relapse.
For a hard swelling on your face consult. A general physician.

Dear lybrate-user,
you have been fighting against ocd. Please take cbt with erp (exposure and response prevention) from a clinical psychologist or cbt trained psychiatrist. Your fighting will be more effective. Please continue all the tablets along with it.
