Well links..
for me i stopped all a'd's yeah i went through hell first few mnths god only you so far can imagine, now i think i am kind of healing myself!
my private phycologist is just the best she has just said now as i rang her as this has been playing on my mind that your brain can get back to normal like breaking your leg it does get better you may still get the odd ache and pain etc but it does get better wuth the right treatment !!
she also stated that they have done lots and lots of trials in the us
1)prozac (for example)
2)placabo
3)CBTfirst mnth prozac was top
third mnth placabo and prozac
4th - present (12th mnth) CBT is top of the charts!! why and how i asked ?
cus CBT is working your brain naturally the way without blocking anything out dealing with things and challanging things etc ..
prozac is just blocking things out and making you have a kind of slower recovery with symptoms, withdrawls etc and god knows what else its doing !!
placabo is just like the imagination thinking its working
but cbt always comes top!! which makes sense to me.
conclusion link hun get of them, you can not remember what its like to be of them , you and me are simular i did it, yes withdrawl was hell !! shocks, crying, not all there etc etc only now getting back on track after 7 mnths !! stick with it..
how can your brain get back to normal when it keeps getting fed more fuel ?trust your instinct
