At least we're not alone! It seems as though most of us have gained weight on our meds, doesn't it?
I have this theory that Calvin is responsible for this: since we're sick, but should be able to 'just stop whining' about it, the drugs are punishment as well as treatment. After all, if they just treated the disorder, we'd never know that we were bad, right?
Just like oral contraceptives, if only rich powerful white men got depression, you can bet that ADs would lead to an increase in lean muscle mass, weight loss, regrow hair, and make our breath fresh and minty!
OK, just a really twisted thought. But some of you smiled a little, and was that an unwilling chuckle I heard from over there?
