> Dream on Dr. Nezerov, you need medication too!
No I don't. I've been off all medications for over two years now, and I'm doing just fine, thanks.
It seems like you need a medication change though, because I'm starting to get the feeling I'm being stalked. When's your next appointment? D'ya think you could get in sooner?Nezirov

I don't mean this in a facetious way at all. I am just wondering what you are here for, if you have no intentions of ever touching a psychiatric med again so long as you live ?

Scientology approaches it the wrong way. Anyone can raise a flag.

I am not stalking Nez, but paranoia is a "symptom"!

I came here to advertize my SSRI sexual side effects group on Yahoo and then got caught up in the discussions that ensued. I don't mean this in a facetious way either, but do you think you will be on meds for the rest of your life?

It's not my fault that you have paranoia. As I said, try to get a sooner appointment.

Hey Nez, you remind me of Tom Cruise. He is clearly manic depressive, and in complete denial!

I'm not selling anything. Seems like you're having delusions now in addition to the paranoia and stalking tendencies. It's worse for you than I thought...Nezirov.

Why do you think Tom Cruise is manic depressive?

It is a combination of the combativeness and denial of his symptoms. Nez so desperately wants to be "Normal" he can't stop telling the world how "Normal" he is. This is a threat to his world in that he is afraid of his "true" nature.

You are interesting you know, but why the interest really in the meds?

Is that the best you can do? Where are all of these posts of me proclaiming "I'm normal"?
Go back and check, though I know it's difficult for somebody like you who is delusional. On the contrary, you devoted a whole post to stating that you absolutely required medication.N

> You are interesting you know, but why the interest really in the meds?
Thanks. I think these meds are much more powerful than most people realize. And ultimately detrimental to long-term health, mental and otheriwse.
And since I've been adversely affected by them (long-term loss of sex drive), I feel an ethical responsibility to point out the potential dangers of these drugs to others.N

OK, as long as you're being altruistic, but you know people can get terribly offended about this right? It's not always fun to feel like you have to take a psychotropic med.

I understand that it's not fun. I'm just saying that it's not always necessary to take these drugs, and quite often they can make things worse long-term. The drug companies and the psychiatric profession have an obvious conflict of interest in helping people solve their problems. They *want* people on drugs long-term. But this, IMO, is a symptom of the much larger problem of the way sociey is today, which is ultra-competitive, unsympathetic, uncaring, selfish, and too focused on individual "success" (whatever that means) than feeling happy, and good about yourself.

Well I must agree with you there. I do believe that we are way too focused on terribly unrealistic standards for ourselves. We've come to expect perhaps more instant gratifications. Things seem disposable. We find less fulfillment in our passions in favor of a rat race that never seems to end. And then sometimes we come up empty or burn out, and blame ourselves. I don't know how to fix that...

It would take some major changes to fix it. Difficult, but hopefully not impossible.
At some point we will have to change the fabric of society otherwise the human species will not survive.
Destructive power is growing exponentially, but altruism appears to be decreasing. Not good trends. I could write more, but perhaps another time or a different thread? I'm going to bed. Good night.N
