Haha The clinic sounds like the care center my son ends up in every few months. Qualified people...Not!
The person running the psychiatric treatment center is an Osteopath which to me means Chiropractor.
That is someone who manipulates your spine etc. for back or muscular skeletal problems.
Wellbutrin helped my son but I think they over medicated him 450 mg of Wellbutrin first thing
in morning and 1 20 mg prozac and 3 5mg Haldol during the afternoon. It worked well for a while
but in a month his muscles locked up with EPS and his hands were shaking from the Wellbutrin.
As far as EPS that had to be from the Haldol.
He doesn't seem to be able to tolerate Cogentin or Artane so the Haldol was dropped as well as the
Wellbutrin which he should probably still be taking only less than 450 mg.
Now he is taking Latuda which doesn't work for him so he is back relapse mode.
I still think Wellbutrin is a good medication and is sometimes called a mood elevator which is what it did for my son.
