Hi ((ziggy)) the only time i was given meds made me like a zombie for 9 months according to my friends....i don't remember a thing except....friends eventually got me to understand these meds my doc had me on for 9 months weren't supposed to be used for any more than 4 WEEKS max. she wouldn't wean me when i asked her so i quit cold.

and though i occassionally feel like drinking...when i'm really ticked off...i don't drink even at new years...so i don't gotta worry about that affecting meds.

oh bosh...i just don't know where my head is on this one...i don't wanna be reliant on meds to function...i'd feel like a junkie..yet i'm totally not coping atm. grrrrr....

thanks for your input, it all helps.
