just thought i’d ask bc before i changed med it was like a chemical labotomy, i rarely had dreams and i struggled to think of poetry and when i did it was very short,
my new med has helped me to open up and now my imagination has just exploded, i am now thinking and feeling at almost full capacity, if my head had a speedometer it would be off the chart lol
my new med is like a supercharger, i think if i wrote a book or something it would be amazing lol (better than tolkien) so yeah just thought i’d ask, whats your imagination like?
my imagination is over active. It’s in every direction at once and it gets a bit vivid.
My sis had been urging me to write… I have been giving it a try, but I get off track so much and start other things before I even begin to finish the first idea.
If there is creative content that is properly convey in words I typically get a good image. As far as imagining new things on the fly. Not so great. I don’t really use my imagination all that much except for planning on how to decorate my crib.
I used have a wild imagination and would constantly be imagining scenarios or sex positions or all that ■■■■. I’m happy to have shut most of that ■■■■ down. It keeps me from getting ahead of myself and wound up.
It’s more important to function in the world than it is to imagine it being better. But I think if everyone was constantly trying to imagine a better world things might get better a lot quicker.
What type of what @daze? I’m currently not in Iowa, I live in Missouri, but the question I answered said where you are from…I was born in Iowa yes. But I haven’t lived there since I was a baby. We go back at least once a year to visit family, whether we plan on going to a wedding, graduation, reunion, or birthday…we just went in march for my Grandma’s 90th birthday so we probably wont be going back any time soon unless something happens to her. But really grandma’s in great health right now…better than my grandfather from my mom’s side.
i agree with this statement we should all be trying to imagine a better world, some times you get lost in the mire, bogged down by things, we need something to pull us out and to help us realize our full potential as human beings, we need to think and use our brains to help us imagine and create a better society for us all and that includes our children too and our childrens children
My imagination used to be real good…now I’m dulled out. I need my meds though. its definitely worth losing my imagination…in some ways im more creative because im more present while im on the meds. but in other ways i cant write the way i used to. ive always wanted to be a writer, but its okay, because i have new goals now.
With out meds… my imagination has nothing to contain it… and it over takes the boundaries of my lucid mind. Soon I’m not living in this world any more… I’m living in a world of my brains making.
i just realized that my imagination is both a good thing and worse without meds as i am able to function at almost full capacity while on meds, i still need my meds of course as i need a little help keeping it all intact lol, its a small price to pay, so i just said its a good thing for now
@redrose i take amisulpride 200mg but i use to take risperidone 8mg
