> hey darkhorse,
> i read your post and related immediately to what you said about letting the drugs wash out and becoming yourself again. i've been staying off the heavy duty prns like antipsychotics and narcotic painkillers and taking only the bare minimum-- lamictal, prozac, zoloft, and adderall (still a lot!-- and my mind feels so much clearer, and if there's such a thing as knowing myself (i've been medicated for so long) this seems like it. i hope your clarity lasts!Thank you CareBear 04.
You know,after taking many many psychotropic medications,I have come full circle with my attitude with those medications.I think that all of us who post here are not in the extreme poles i.e. we are not extremely severly miserable,and not totally well.From my experience,if I was severely depressed,I would not have the mood or motivation to read and concentrate.
I would have been living inside myself,and not botherd with anything else.Also, if I was fully content and happy I also wouldn't have bothered to read about medications.
I hope the best for you.
D.H.
