Medication doesn’t work for me, am I alone?

I have found that medication doesn’t work for me (my body rejects it or i have to almost overdose on medications to feel “normal”). i’ve never met anyone who experiences this

Honestly I just take the insane amounts of meds. It's a fun party trick in the ER when they're pumping me full of meds that should be working but they just,,,,, don't. NSAIDs, especially toradol, just make everything worse, even stuff not related to the pain they're trying to treat. Also swallowing four potassium pills at once and horrifying the nurse is always good for a giggle

I was originally put on for trich then they found out I had chronic depression too. Took Ssris for 20 years. Nothing worked and it was crazy hard to get off. Glad I’m off now though. Don’t notice any improvement with them and only side effects.
