> To me losing weight can be seen and is proven, same with plastic surgery you see before and after pics and you look different as something was done to the outside. But not the inside. Almost like the meds change your personality? And it can't be seen that I know of or any tests available to say what you need all trial and error. Just my thoughts. Phillipa
Regardless we still have the right to change something about our character or personality. If something about us brings us pain we aren't obligated to live with it. We take a chance when we take meds.
Like ace recently he was afraid the meds we're changing him and he wanted to stop the nardil. But as the dose was reduced he started getting depressed again. Than he raised the dose and became happy again. All I'm saying we have the right to change anything about us that brings us pain.
If I remember correctly you supported ace to start back on the nardil.I don't understand your point. The person can tell you wether they're now happy or depressed. That's the indicator of wether the med is working.
So what's the big deal that one's personalilty has changed? Maybe I didn't like the old one.
Also plastic surgery can be dangerous. People often die to look different. Plus do you really know all the sides that may happen in the future.
