In reply to I am TIRED of medicaition and the system!!!!!, posted by Anna5 on April 9, 2006, at 11:29:13
I reduced down medication for a couple of months and then finially stopped taking it March 24th evening. Spring break from March 24th afternoon to Sunday April 2nd to have some time to see if I had any major withdrawal symptoms. Then after that there was five and half weeks of classes left. I delt with 4 tests, 4 papers, group presentation, and doing a final exam project. I remember for about two weeks after stopping medication that I slowed down cognitively, it took me twice as long to do things and was also fatigue, now at week 9 I am doing good not as fatigue as I was and cognitively its slowly picking up.
I am not smart, I just work hard and ask for help when I need it. I have a wonderful support system.
I have been dealing with the real underlining issues in my life that no amount of medications can ever fix. I have got this far in my life is because I am determined to work on bettering myself.
