I spent two and a half years getting to where I am. I used to say that I spent two years getting here, but I found a supplement that has improved my affect.
I want yal to really try and grind through those medications.
I don’t post that often on here, because I feel its more for people working through some things, but I just want you to know that you have the potential to find an even better new normal for you.
Its a long process and its a total crap shoot. I recommend being proactive in your own care, and honest with yourself if you think symptoms are reappearing. Try to really get to know what’s normal for you and try and put that as the baseline for each drug you try, and if you can’t get there with that drug or don’t improve above that margin, keep trying within your abilities.
I’ve no idea of what normal is. I feel medicated and different and maybye that is it but your on the money. I am stable with symptoms mostly so that helps.
Take the pills. If not working try something else. It does pay to be positive and your right it’s pretty much a crap shoot! More power to you and hope your well!
Yep I agree getting to stability is a rough grind but it’s worth it in the end. I was marvelling over how normal I’ve become. My past life of crazy seems like another world now. I cant even believe how bad I used to be. Thank God I found good meds.
I think what qualifies as “normal” nowadays isn’t as important as being ethical. I take all sorts of vitamins and pay attention to my health to maintain a state of well being, and although I have some close friends, I seriously don’t fit in with “normal” society, and I think that’s perfectly fine. While I believe we have to be able to get along in society, I have no desire to be like everyone else. I’d rather just be myself.
