Ever since I been severely depressed caused by Accutane poisoning and ECT that went wrong and damaged my memory and very likely my cognition it has been difficult for me to feel clear headed.
I don't feel anywhere as intelligent or extraverted as I used to be 8 years ago when I was 18, when it all started. My life would never be the same beyond that point. I find it difficult often to even form thoughts together and have things to say. A flowing stream of consciousness would be nice.
I would like to know people's opinions, experiences, views or even what they simply heard regarding what medications can really help for alertness, a more active mind, memory, ability to simply think which also helps with ability to be social. parnate helped for a little, same with Selegiline/Emsam, and perhaps paxil. meds like celexa, effexor have worsened my dep. Ritalin and Dexedrine I should mention used to help a lot for the above mentioned factors. They don't last though.
Please help me out here as I am on the verge of losing the last true friend I have due to the fact that I feel so dull, unintellectual, and introverted.
I'll try and get a big list together of all the meds I have tried. I need to find it in my journal.
