Guys I need reassurance...

Aloha,

Have you decided if you are going to increase you dosage of Lex? You will never really know if ADs are going to help until you are taking the apprepiate dose for your body.

Setbacks suck and the feelings that come with them are the worst. Most of us have been there, feeling like we were on the brink of something terrible...and we've all made it back.

And try not to be too worried about the vulnerability, as you will find out so much about yourself when you are open and vulnerable. You will end up figuring this out, AK! In the meantime try to be gentle and patient with yourself.

A.K.,

I think if one read enough articles, that one could find something sensational and/or frightening about the potential effects of anything.

The key word here is potential...

I believe that there are many factors to consider when talking about the absolutel catastrophic outcome of any behavior.

Personal variations such as genetics, background, resilience...ect are all going to have an effect...

I do not think you are experiencing that which you fear...but rather going through a difficult time with your anxiety.

With continued therapy, self help, and getting to the right therapeutic level of your Rx...

...I am confindent that you are going to make a great recovery.

Look how far you have come already.:) You can expect more good with time and continued effort.

With encouragement,

S.C.

Aloha, everyone is just enough different that they fall outside of what everyone else calls normal, I tried MJ while on the river in VN, it turned me
into a murderous, not feeling, dangerous person.

It was not important enough to me to try ever again, and not being one who
needed the approval or others to feel worthwhile i just quit the club.

We are mostly the same, but some of us really are different. Peace

Larry ***
