> l I can tell you is that before the meds life for me was unbearable and now I have room to breathe. I would rather deal with drug side effects than my depression any day. And as far as the stupid talkative feeling they give me only helps in my day to day life. With out them I am like a scared rabbit.
Your post is interesting. You seem to recognize the 'stupid talkative feeling' as a side effect.
This confuses me. I don't know if it's what I want. Anyway, this proves that everything's subjective. I have nothing against meds in general, I'm glad you're doing fine on them, I just wondering if they're worth of me. I am a 'borderline case', one for whom it's not clear if medicating is the best thing to do. I have seen also psychiatrists who said I didn't have to take meds. Anyway, I don't care very much about the physical side-effects, just concerned about the way they change my life. I have been un-medicated for two years and an half and I discovered new sides of me that I forgot about when I was taking meds. I have live two lives, now I don't know which one is the best. Thanks for posting and good luck for your life
