[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 592689, member: 1233"] I would not EVER judge myself or compare myself to Zeta-Jones. I know people hwo grew up with her and/or are still friends with her. She was always a holy terror of a difficult child and about the cheapest woman in Hollywood. The things she did to her parents to save five or ten dollars are just plain mean. If she pays someone to monitor her, I would be shocked as all heck. The stories I have heard of her and things she has done take her from the frugal category to the 'uses frugality as an excuse to be an abusive freeloader even though she has a huge income" category. If even ten percent are true, PLEASE do not use her as a ruler to compare yourself. I am sorry you are dulled, LMS. I hope you can discuss this wth your doctor and work to find a medication combo and dosage that balances the bad and the good for the best life possible. Don't be afraid to talk this through with your doctor. It is one of the things we worked hard to teach Wiz to do, and he has said it helped him learn to insist on changes when he knew problems were happening and it helped him realize that medications helped him be the person he wanted to be. I know you often figured the docs knew best on some issues, but you know best. You know if it is or isn't working, if the side effects are too great and if you are losing yourself then it is time to sit down and insist the doctor listen and try to find a solution. You are a very special lady, and I hoep and pray you can find a medication combo that helps while allowing you to be yourself. (((((hugs))))) [/QUOTE]
