Maybe one day there will be meds/something that leave us in a state of being "well", at least for a very extended period of time. That will be a happy day. It's funny, in a very darkly humorous way, that the AD's that many of use take make us feel WORSE, at least for a little while-and then may or may not be of help in the future. When I read the things about having to carefully watch teenagers starting AD's (and now seniors)-I have to laugh. You take a person that usually is taking a med despite absolutely hating the idea-they are taking it only because they can't stand the way they feel-then the med makes them feel WORSE and you should be watching the person for signs of dismay. It's only taken the medical community 20 years to figure that out...
