Why does God want me on anti-psychotics?

[SorenVC]

I tried 4 times to get rid of Olanzapine/Zyprexa cold-turkey and one time with slow taper and it just doesn't work. I will have to be on them for life like my therapist suggested when I asked her how to get rid of them. I just can not sleep without them anymore and it never gets better. And while I'm on them I'm not sure what it does to me but I feel slow and tired. Who cares I guess. Big pharma doesn't. I guess I'll have to take these damn pills and be content. I wonder why God put me on this drug. What was the reason for that...

[shovelquest]

Because entropy.

God said: let there be a universe with entropy

And his AI assistant (lucifer) said: what ru crazy? That would be torture.

And god said, you can't even feel pain you'd never know what torture is.

And the AI said, you programmed me to know everything torture is this: _______.

And god goes, see because you live in a universe without entropy you dont know what decay feels like therefore you don't know what it feels like to know the opposite.

And lucifer was like I bet if you make a universe with entropy that more people would join me in wanting to live in a world without it.

And god said, ok bet.

And now we've been racing to the end of that bet ever since.

So TL;DR without suffering, you wouldn't know joy, so:

You take the good
You take the bad
You take them both and there you have
The facts of life
The facts of life

When the world never seems
To be living up to your dreams
Then suddenly you're finding out
The facts of life are all about you

When there's someone that you care about
It really isn't fair
They're out to slow you up
When you're growing up

When you let them flirt
And then you hurt
A waiting when your date is late in showing up
Then you're growin' up

When it's more than just the birds and the bees
You need someone telling you please
There's only one conclusion
There will always be confusion over you
It takes a lot to get 'em right
When you're learning the facts of life
See upcoming pop shows
Get tickets for your favorite artists

You'll avoid a lot of damage
And enjoy the fun of managing
The facts of life
They shed a lot of light

If you hear 'em from your brother
Better clear 'em with your mother
Better get 'em right
Call her late at night

You got the future in the palm of your hand
All you gotta do to get you through is understand
You think you'd rather do with out
You'll never muddle through
Without the truth
The facts of life are all about you

Sketchy reviews, sketchy medicine drug. I don't really like being addicted to this or how the professionals call it, being "dependent, not addicted" to it. But what choice do I have. The more I live the more I feel like I never chose anything in life and if I had to live it again with the same feelings same situation I would do the same that I already did. But fatalism is hard to believe in and free will looks like magic too. So what's the truth?

I feel like this drug was pushed on me when I was only 16 years old and now 12 years later I can't get rid of it. What can I do really. I don't even know how much this thing impacts me. But when I tapered it off slowly, I did feel much different indeed. I wonder what it would feel like to be free from this medicine...

There's only one choice man can make in life, and that is to accept Jesus or not.

Everything else you're just swimming down the current of a river, sure you can swim faster, sure you can swim around things, sure you can do all this swimming.

But in the end you're just down river, like everyone else.

Because you were predestined to partake in the thug life and will continue to do so unconditionally.

I don't know your condition, but it might be possible to switch to other drugs with less side effects.

I personally was on Zyprexa for awhile, and hated the side effects (for me it was drowsiness, restless legs, and hunger). Over time, I worked with my doctor to taper off the Zyprexa, and now I only take it very rarely.

He doesn't. Pray to Jesus, he will show you. Dont take my word for it. Those who knock with a humble heart, he will answer you.

Pharmaceuticals are what the Bible calls "sorcery"-- it's deception. A false idea of "healing" you. You know, exactly what the Bible warned you about. That deception is -everywhere-. God made you whole, ready to take on this world. Don't let the world convince you of anything else.

Stay vigilant and keep your touches lit, brother.
For your adversary the devil prowls around looking for those weak enough to devour.
Stay vigilant. Awake. Aware.
Keep love in your heart. If they can't convince you of this bs, they will convince you to hate.
Resist it all.

I'm not gonna ask what symptoms you're trying to manage on a public forum and expect you to answer me. Above all and most importantly we are not (your) care professionals and anything you see online should be researched and discussed with your own physician or care provider and that is most certainly a disclaimer.

For sensory gating (having trouble ignoring external sensory stimuli) I read a journal article that concluded Vitamin A Palmitate is effective which can be bought locally at health food stores and many vitamin shops. If it's something manic or perhaps psychosis there's Lithium salts. Most people think of Rx lithium that needs to be closely monitored because of toxicity. In fact, trace amounts of lithium are essential for health in humans, and there are other forms of Lithium (Orotate and Aspartate) which are sold OTC and provide the benefits without enough of the risks where it can be taken every day.

Vitamin A Palmitate (for this a quick google scholar search has failed but I found it on /r/nootropics i dunno a decade ago, and I tried it and it worked for me)
