Man oh man.. sorry to hear that, I wish there were a better way to combat these illnesses. you know.. like without the side effects and zombie effect. It poses the question of if/when i have children and they too are affected by severe mental illness will there be better medicine that will not be so off-putting.. .in the future?
Thanks for this!
