Heya,

The meds for me did change who I was, because it changed how I functioned. They made me lethargic and slurring my words ever so slightly. So slightly that people have noticed now that I have come off them but didn't know what to say when I was on them.

I think meds definitely have a place in society. They can accomplish much good. Like I've said in other posts apart from the negative side effects, the shaking hands and stuff, they took away the hallucinations, paranoia, delusions, and the major depression. They did leave a low grade depression mainly due to the lethargy that I felt whilst on them. Without the meds now, the lethargy is gone, my energy is up and I'm not feeling the low grade depression.

I can't say that quitting meds is a good idea, it's not without the help of your doctor. Ultimately you have to make the decision for yourself. Best of luck,

Love and Hugs,
Tara
