My psych doc reduced dosage of two medications in response to TMS treatment outcome last Tuesday. Thought all was going well until a conflict arose in physical therapy and lack of progress. I’ve had 8 visits and my discomfort level hasn’t changed since I started. I need to contact my primary and find out where to go from here. The other thing is pain management of which I have begun the process for evaluation. Opiods are responsible for a lot of unpleasant side affects and risk of addiction, not sure I want to go down this path.

Getting back to recent reduction of medication, one was an antipsychotic and the other was an antidepressant. When faced with a complex situation I could not make a intelligent decision regarding my treatment, so I shut down, excused myself and headed to my car. It’s all very silly of me allowing something so insignificant affect me this way, but you know how drugs are, can’t live with them, can’t live without them?

What is your primary diagnosis? Are you in a lot of physical pain? Are there alternative therapies that could help? Would you be willing to try them?
 
Primary mental health diagnosis is schizophrenia depressive aka schizoid-affective. Yes I am in physical pain and I've tried acupuncture and physical therapy. I also have tremors partly due from TDS Tardive dyskinesia a side affect from antipsychotic medications.
It was especially difficult to sleep last night because of the tremors and decrease in medication.
