i posted an article last week entitled "the river is running dry". thank all of you for your response.
hopefully someone has had a similar experience and can give me advice from what i am about to tell you. i have been on almost all ssris, remeron, wellbutrin, effexor, neurontin, and pschotics. currently i take adderall alone. this has been the only drug that has actually helped with my general well being. all of the others made me more depressed especially the ssris. adderal made me feel normal and not druged up with many side effects. yesterday i was on my porch and my roomate was complaining about one of his friends. usually i would think to myself "god all this kid does is complain, please do not talk to me anymore." now my thinking is starting to change. it seems like, and please share your positive experiences with medication, that the adderall made me more compassionate. when my roomate complained the other day i was thinking to myself, "this is interesting and beautiful to hear the point of view of a human being who is totally different than i." the adderal has shown me a glimpse of what it means to be happy and content with one self. its really amazing. now the next step for ryan_s. i would like to take another psychiatric drug that would add to the beneficial quality of adderal (ps any drug that effects serotonin makes me feel crazy). adderal has given me a glimpse of what it means to be happy but it seems like i still have a lot of work to do mentally. i am still shy and do not say alot in conversations. my self esteem has risen a little with adderal but can be improve. please give any advice you can squander up. good luck to all of you babblers and love to all.
