Dear NHGuy,
I'm so glad that your sensitivities don't sound like my daughter's!!!
It's also good to hear that there have been (it sounds like) 2 times when you were off MJ for almost a year. My other kid - son, 24 has been using/abusing substances since he was about 13 or 14. Started with MJ & alcohol in an 'ordinary' way. Ended up with cocaine, crack, crystal meth & full-blown paranoid psychosis!!!!!!!
He's now on antipsychotic meds - risperidone, seroquel & clomazapam (sp or all?) - the latter to help him sleep. I've been receiving excellent support on the Social Board for the past about year & 5 months - maybe more...don't know how I would have coped without the wonderful people here.
Anyway, I wish you the very best & sincerely hope your body copes really well with this new-for-you med. :-)
Keep us up to date on how you do, okay.
And YES - I agree - YAY for 5HTP.
Oh yeah - I forgot to say that daughter's fiance really did a number on his brain with ecstasy - his memory is really fried big-time.
Well, mine isn't all that great either!! from Celexa & that thing called "age"!! LOL I'm 61.
But ya know, lots of older people have okay memories, so I'm not sure about that...I know Celexa noticeably affected it.ANYway, take care, luv, Kath
