That's pretty interesting! I guess the Zyprexa personality isn't that bad. The outdoors are good!
I don't know if meds have really changed my personality, per se. My illness and aging has to a degree. I still think the core of my personality is the same, but when I was very ill I felt like a different person in significant ways. Wellness has brought me back to my younger self in the core ways. My struggle and lessons learned have made me a better person in various ways, and wiser. I'm no longer able to do many things I used to do. I'm less courageous in ways, and more in others. I'm not sure that is related to personality, though.
My interests have varied throughout my life and I sometimes like one thing one minute and another another time. I don't listen to music or dance like I used to. That was a huge part of my life for 30+ years. I still love those things, but they are no longer present passions. I never paid much attention to some things in my youth that I pay a lot of attention to now.
