> When I am properly medicated I feel great. I can't compare it with "normal" because I have never felt "normal". But I know my days are much better, relatively no mood swings, no crying, etc. I still deal with a few annoying side effects such as slight fatigue, weight gain (which I am working on getting rid of, however, not all the meds cause weight gain - don't want to scare you there). Hang in there, keep trying different meds until you find the ones that make you feel well. My only advice is to not stay on a med too long that is not helping you. Some people stay on meds for months or even years that don't seem to be helping them at all.
Thanks for the nice responses. I'm feeling better today. Yesterday was really sad. Three years ago yesterday i lost my dearest friend(they think it was an aneurism). That's a loss i'll feel forever. I miss him so much, especially now with all this cr*p going on with me.
i haven't noticed weight gain,and hopefully i won't since infact i've lost weight and don't ever want to be that big again. but i'm not exactly eating right either...just don't feel like it, ya know?
thanks all.
B2c.
