In reply to long term effects from meds, posted by poser938 on April 24, 2012, at 11:23:25
I wonder though, poser, how you can be so sure what effects the meds have vs what effect other things, like just simply how your life has gone, and what connections you've made mentally among things, and how you remember and perceive things-- completely apart from drugs.
You seem so sure-- but in my experience it's impossible to be sure what's causing what, and what, actually, is happening in one's mind,
Perhaps if you expect your doctor to be open to discovering things he doesn't expect or believe initially, you also should take a more experimental and exploratory approach to your assumptions about what's causing your reactions.
What drugs did you take, and what long-term effects do you believe they've had? And what drugs have you taken to counter-act the effects of the first drugs? This all seems incredibly complex, and much to tangled for anyone to know clearly what's causing your current troubles.
It might help you to be less sure-- and less committed to the inevitability of these reactions. There are often mistakes we make in our thinking about ourselves, and it helps to keep an open mind.
