Chronic Mental Illness and Suicide (brief addendum)

Following up on the posting I just made i thought it would be relevant to share some of the meds I've been on - I've taken them alone and in various combinations: (this list is NOT comprehensive - just the only ones I can think of off the top of my head):
zoloft, effexor, paxil, wellbutrin, depakote, tegretol, lithium, desyrel, pamelor, cyproheptadine, ambien, xanax, valium, zyprexa, stellazine, atavan, and others (particularly anti-depressants) which I can't remember.
I am always compliant on my meds, never ever abuse them, and meds are not part of my suicide plan. Most of these I was resistant to.
Thanx,
Toby
