Rick you are right about the A&&hole comment…I’m realizing today that there are some people that I don’t know why I’ve kept them in my life…they are a&& holes. I can actually hear what they are saying and their intent before I used to say oh it’s just them and laugh…now I’m realizing it’s not funny and not nice. They are toxic people and I have slowly removed them. The medication has enhanced my already good social skills to the point that I’m able to focus on one person and find out more about them then telling them all about me…much better. I find I actually am having more intelligent, focused conversation with people and then deciding whether I agree or disagree instead of blurting…I do/don’t agree within seconds or even interupting. Like it myself much better – foot hasn’t been in my mouth as often…thank God for that!!
As for Dig4dave, I guess I wonder if you feel great when you take the meds is there a reason why you don’t take them everyday so that you feel great everyday. My understanding of the brain chemistry is that it never changes so when you take the meds it allows the neurotransmitter to connect properly and do what it is supposed to. It doesn’t change your personality it enhances your capibilites of that already wonderful personality. So with no meds the brain goes back to misfiring with the neurotransmitters so I’m no doctor but I wonder if your doctor has explained how the brain works with our without meds. Or, maybe what your doing just works for you and if it does…beautiful keep what your doing.
Just a thought, Elizabeth
