I don't see much point in taking them for a few months or years if eventually the meds poop out or the side effects become intolerable. Anybody had their life permanently changed for the better on these meds? And stayed on them more or less permanently?I have found a "cocktail" of sorts that worked wonders for me but I had a negative reaction (physical side-effects) to the med combination.
