Hi Linkadge,
I agree, It's hard to see others do that because you feel like they are not being sensible. Theres no such thing as a magic bullet, and most people know that. I think some folks are a bit are a little to eager to feel perfect. My philosophy is this on meds... typically I've gotten at least some type of therapeutic value from all meds I've tried... but there's no cure all... If I can sit back, enjoy life, and have pleasure, then I know a med is doing something for me... I doubt there's ever truly been anyone who has had their life changed 100 percent by a med.
Also, don't feel bad, I truly beleive that something good is going to come your way, even if you don't feel that way right now. May not be right away, but it will happen.
Best,
Chris> I don't mean to be an entire stinge, but I hate the people who come on this board and start blithering on for hours about how drug "x" has revolutionized their life, and how once they were lost, but now they're found, and how they will never be unhappy again since they've found drug "x", and how every problem they have has just fluttered out the window, and bla bla bla, on and on. Perhaps I am being extremely bitter, but I feel like saying "just wait for the poop out", "it may be tommorow, it may me two years from now, but when it happens you'll really start to rethink exactly what normal is. Happiness is just one emotion it comes and goes just like day and night. When will people learn that this hedonic treadmill we are on just keeps spinning under our feet. Curb your enthusiasm folks for the "latest and greatest" new drug. Its in our nature to think that magic pill will come floating along, but that magic pill will make kurt cobains of us all.
