Thanks IsoM,
I agree with you entirely. Yes, it is possible
that drugs (psychoactive or not) may, after a long
time of exposure, change a brain state, or even
any other organ for that matter. And yes, I am
willing to accept that I will never be able to
get off Klonopin, or lithium or Synthroid - that
may be so; I am willing to accept that stability
is the best I can get.But, as you seem to understand my point, the question
is (and it is an academic question now, as I do
not believe any dr. would touch my equilibrium and
try to change it after so many years), the question
is ---- can Valium and other benzo w/d, and even
Grave's disease if you like, present to the doctor
as a mental illness -- that is what I am trying to
stress, and apply it to my case as well.If Dr. Goldberg or any other hotshots out there
want to experiment with my dendrites, however ...
i'm willing to donate my sanity for the sake
of science.you know how to reach me :-)
