Just stick with med program man. When you're feeling ok your mind messes with u into thinking it's ok to "tweak" your dosage.

Bad mistake. I know....been there... done that.... B very careful about how u take your meds. U may not like the consequences!

Take care man.

Regards,

That brings me back to mood swings and that's not good for me.

What can I do to remind myself that the meds are doing they're job when I feel good and I don't need to change it?
