question: My daughter had a nervous breakdown recently,. she was under a lot of stress, has had depression in the past, and added to this was a lot of anxiety. she is on several potent drugs. I feel she is over medicated. she has gained 50 lbs, since being on the drugs. Is it necessary for her to be on prozac, seroquel, ativan, neurontin (which she is weaning herself from) and a couple of others? why would she need to be on so many of these mind altering meds? this episode took place in Aug. with 2 additional episodes after August. she s also in group tx. and one on one tx.
