But it doesn't change who I am. I am still me, just calmer.
Took me awhile to decide too. Sometimes it takes awhile to find the right med. or combo of med. that works best. Trial and error is the only way I know.
I only at this time take 1/4 of a 25 mg. seroquel tab and 50 mg of zoloft. Its working. I feel more calm and not like i'm spinning out of control.
I'm not dumbed down, I actually can think better now!
Take care
