I think there is a mental and emotional blunting. Removes more than the depression. When on a higher dose. I find that I can go weeks without realizing that I have diminished capacity to feel emotions, and think complex thoughts. Sometimes this is almost comforting that I don't have to feel everything, just be in the moment. Time goes by quickly, problems can be ignored. As I said before, in a moment of more lucid thought I realize the med curtailed my emotions and thoughts. I have often wonder if a person could cross over a certain dose and never look back. Is that what the doctors call a therapeutic dose ? I guess this is all part of my problem, things could be worse.
