I took Effexor from the age of 13 to15 1/2. I took Adderall on and off for a few

weeks, Ritalin for a few days, Risperdal for like a year, Remeron for 6 months,

Xanax occasionally for a month, Wellbutrin for like a year... I probably missed

some since my doctors were irresponsible, horrible people that gave me drugs

like candy.

Anyways I've been off everything for about 5 years now, I'm 21, but I keep

wondering if taking those drugs during those years could have stunted or

affected my growth. Whether it be my brain, height, penis, whatever. I don't

want to be paranoid but I just have so much resentment that I keep getting

thoughts that they may have harmed my development or something. The only

physical change I remember during those years was I gained weight...

I know most people on here aren't doctors but I don't even trust doctors who

tell me I'm perfectly fine and developed normally. I know I should just move on

cuz the past is the past but I just feel so angry and wronged IF those meds

messed with my normal development..
