Yes. THIS. ^^
I've only been medicated for six months, but I'm as thoroughly convinced of the necessity to stay that way as I am of the need to remain sober for the rest of my life (it's been 20 years, 8 months, and 22 days, but who's counting?). I really enjoy being able to concentrate at work and take care of my residents properly. I like being in an upbeat mood more of the time than not. I also appreciate the ability to be happy without going ape****, sad without weeping hysterically for days, and/or angry without wanting to kill something.
