In past posts I have commented about medication for depression, bipolar, etc. There’s a couple of things I’d like to make very clear about MY experience with psychotic medication… While it has definitely gotten rid of most of the drama in my life, it isn’t a cure all. If you think you’re gonna go to the Dr, get some meds and everything is gonna be great – you’re in for a shock!
#1 – Some medications make you feel like a zombie – not only do you not have DRAMA, you have numbness.
#2 – It sometimes takes a LONG time to find the medications that work for YOU! – It took me about 3 years and 10 med changes.
#3 – Just because one medication is working today doesn’t mean it’s gonna work 2 years from now – your body changes. My chemistry changes with the seasons and my medications are tweaked accordingly.
#4 – Some people don’t even use medication! It’s up to you, your doctor and your family as to what regiment is gonna be best for YOU!
Pretty much, what I’m trying to say is this….
Nobody is gonna be exactly like anybody else. That's kinda like a blessing, though. Don’tcha think?
