I am on medicine for depression and anxiety. I have had several people tell me about a psychotic cocktail. I stay tired all the time and they are telling how much energy they have taking this cocktail. But I would like to know what it contains first, because I think I have tried all the antidepressants, and they only work for just a little while then I have to increase or change. I have lots of medical problems and a very high medication tolerance. I have been on high mg. of very dangerous medicines for many years and then they change them. I am manic depressed with a psuedotumer, and only 39 years old. Please help find the answer to my question. thank you

This is a prescription medicine that is prescibed by the doctor.

'Cocktail' just refers to a mix of psychiatric meds. My particular one right now is lamotrigine, olanzapine, amitriptyline and the occasional Xanax.
Everyone's cocktail is different. It sounds like you need a med refresh, or a new psychiatrist.

Usually a psychotic cocktail refers to the variety of meds people take to control schizophrenia. Cocktails are different for different people. I'm not sure how it would apply to you as bipolar unless you are having psychotic tendancies.

A psychotic cocktail is when you mix two drugs that are not supposed to be taken together. It is very dangerous. Please read over the drug interactions of both medicines you take to determine if they are safe to take together. You dont need that.
You may need to check about what I've listed below.But check to see if alcohol is okay to drink on your medicine.

i would not evaluate the guy to be psychotic. She does seems to be greater manipulative than maximum. If I have been you, i would not obsess over her movements and activities. Your buddy is a great boy. permit him cope with it. in basic terms help him unconditionally if and while he asks.
