CE, do you think you are more brain damaged than the average person on or off meds? If you are, which I have no way of knowing because to me your posts do not show it. You seem more than smart enough to me.

I can think of one other topic as almost as terrifying and compelling as brain damage from meds, injuries, screen-time, heavy metal toxicity, deprivation of oxygen, etc. What to eat, do, and think while pregnant.

Sometimes, I don't know, I get very scared, and perhaps rightfully so, about meds. Then I weigh that with what my hardcore cbt, ivy league, übermensch doctor told me which was to get on drugs because what my brain was doing all on
it's own was known to cause brain damage and even more
precisely an idea of the types of damage being done, whereas med damage evidence was more inconclusive.

I know our challenges in life differ. I am not saying taking an
AAP is a happy thing. Yes, I felt relived when my pdoc said my tiny bit of risperidone might be discontinued in a few months. I certainly hope you do not develop TD and do not dismiss your anxiety or thoughts regarding the possible risks. They are important factors to weigh in treatment considerations. I wish I could help diminish them, though, so it weighed on you less.


I dig a pony.
