Oh, trust me I know all too well, and so does my friend. It's amazing isn't it? We are medicated because it's for our own good, but look what it ends up costing us. I don't know, this almost feels like this is no way to exist.

I don't think it was a sham really tecomsin. I think it is just something that isn't there anymore. You are STILL that person with all those qualities, just numbed down from what you used to be. Don't feel too bad though, you are not alone in this.
