"i had high hopes for this medicines. i was suicidal and eventually broke down and told my psychologist. for the recovery process, i had my heart set on the combination of effexor (venlafaxine) and seroquel (quietapine) as i know these both work effectively in my system. now wasn&#039;t the time to play about with a new medication but of course the psychiatrist knows best... am i right? well, 7 days in and it&#039;s completely wiped out my cognition. i&#039;m normally a good driver and for several years i&#039;ve had no real issues, but within half an hour of driving today i nearly caused two accidents. i am so annoyed with the psychiatrist... they think they know everything but know so little about the medication they prescribe."
