has anyone read this? may be pretty old.

i actually found this out of the blue this morning in time for my doctors appoinment, and now he has reluctantly given me an rx for aricept 5mg/day (after showing him the article, i had already shown him articles regarding executive/organizational functioning and add but didnt convince him then). i'm hoping that this is some miraculous sign from god or something... prolly getting my hopes up again. anyways someone had a possibly wonderful review about it a while ago saying that they were much more able to express feelings. so, maybe hopes are in order...

Do keep us posted on your progress with it......

Centrophenoxine made me feel really weird. I thought it was good and then I wasn't so sure. Never took it again. I've wondered about galantamine.
How do you know what's depression and what's apathy or dysthymia or anhedonia?

A doctor once wanted to prescribe aricep for me but I didn't take it. Wonder how it really works. Fondly, Phillipa
