When I started this journey with psychiatry
(twenty years ago!), I often looked for the
new or better medication which would help me.
I should have been looking at how I was living my life instead.I was not exercising regularly. My diet consisted mostly of processed foods.
I had dental amalgams in my mouth which
should have been attended to.I relied on the medications to make me happy.
Even though I found solace and stability in pills,
I still kept myself removed from the world
and perhaps that was my biggest mistake.Now my expectations are more realistic.
After twelve therapists, I found someone I would
listen to (THANKS DALE!).Meds do have their place. But it is not appropriate for us to make
detailed suggestions and combinations to people
we meet online. I will admit though, that some
of PB's posters seem to know more than some Pdocs
I have met!Christ, Buddah, whatever your preference.
It is Christmastime and I thought it relevant.I am impressed with the introspection g_g_g_unit
has made. They have all the tools to make the
right choices for themselves.
