Thank you for your input. I'm going to keep posting my journey. I'm an avid reader and have read Mad In America and Prozac Nation. I've probably read every book on the market regarding mental illness and alway search for more. From every perspective...pro med, anti med, the spiritually of MI, nutritionally deficiencies that can cause mental illness symptoms, the list goes on.

A flood of creativity would be awesome!. I'm a writer and artist. My writing has fallen by the wayside due to brain fog which is one of the reasons I'm trying this taper. I take 2 art classes per week which I sometimes have to force myself to go to. My teacher knows what's up with me and is very supportive. She constanty reminds me that many artists don't "feel" creative. We just have to show up and put out our brushes and paints, and start moving and it will come.

I'm hoping that the day will come when I go into my studio (used to be my dining room) on my own and do some work without the safety net of class time.

This turned into a long post Again i appreciate from the bottom of my heart your feed back.
