[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 30637, member: 1514"] Im going to chime in with the others on medications helping. An AD isnt going to be a pill that makes you into a person you arent. At least it shouldnt. It does for me which is why I cant take them...lol. A wise therapist once told me that medications were part of a patients toolbox. If you looked out a window at a tree and saw a piece of plywood, some boards, a saw and a toolbox sitting off to the side and you wanted to build a tree house what would be the easiest way to do it? Well you could decide to just take the plywood and lay it in some low branches and sit on it but the tree house wouldnt be very stable and it could fall out and it would be hard to climb up to when you wanted to get there. It would be far better to go get your toolbox and nail the boards onto the tree for a ladder, then nail the plywood onto the branches so that it was sturdy. Such it is with life. If you use your tools you have a sturdier and more stable life. Ok...that made much more sense when looking out a window...lol. [/QUOTE]
