So if you are sooooooooo smart, what exactly is nature trying to tell me.....insult me and bad things will happen, you wanna be a big boy give me a good adult arguement that doesnt involve insulting people or "the man" . I just want to hear a good intellectual excuse against it if you can come up with that.. if you can give me that I might talk to you like a big boy.

First, I would like to point out that I have social anxiety disorder it's pretty bad. I had always viewed it as a disease, something that needed fixing. The more and more it moved along the more I realized that there wasn't something wrong with me, it was just my mind reacting to all of the negativity, hatred, and ignorance that I went through every day. My mind was telling me that I need to expend all the unnecessary "worries" that I had. I would feel extremely uncomfortable around people who were not true minds and hearts. I stopped hanging out with all the "group" and just started finding who my real friends were. That right there helped me a lot, realizing that not everyone is my friend and that they only adversely affected my anything. I stopped going to school because at school it was the worst. Everywhere I turn, I would almost be having an attack. I eventually dropped out, an ignorant, feeble, asshole who only ever wanted pussy and to be fucked up and didn't care who got hurt along the way (which is most of the population of this country.) Things started turning when I spent much more of the day for myself, thinking for myself, breathing for myself, and doing for myself. I took it upon myself to learn, since we all know school is not the place to be learning anything. I picked up my bass and seriously started jamming on it, and I also picked up a pen.

Therefore, it turns out that all along this "disease" was quite a fucking blessing. If it weren't for it, I’d still be hanging out with masses of mindless faces, smoking weed, drinking, snorting, popping being an asshole, being selfish, stupid, and careless all day every day.

Embrace the negative people. Know when someone is trying to tell you something.

Drugs are never the answer. Never.

Here's a little something I wrote called, "My Drug and a Mental Disease; A Look Into This World's Muted Panacea"

Childhood angst. No mind for confusion. Not following just being. Not myself just a cog. Knowing nothing but what is told. Group situations lead to group mentality. Common conception all that exists. This is the way it has been made to be. No real communication just rapid, random, recycled waste spit from every orifice.

You've shown me another way. You show oneself and the means to explore. Hidden from they but exposed to all. To comfortably advance and maturate here, confined, safe, and not so ignorant. Forming/molding my own and debating to further stretch my soul.

You put me where I need to be, let me see what wants to be seen, please keep me inside of what mind-state should be.

Blessings behind a mask. Keep me here, keep me free.

A warning from those above that group situations lead to group mentality.

Just make sure you let this world's muted panacea educate thee.

i was recently put on the antidepressant lexapro. i have noticed a huge difference in the last few weeks. i have this strange little problem of passing out. which is probably a combination of several things.. positional hypotention, low pulse, low bloodpressure, and since i have started taking lexapro i have mental and physically felt better. my headaches are almost gone and i have not had any dizy spells or passed out.

No one posted becasue no one wants to play with da trolls..

Eh well after a month, Straterra REALLY makes a difference. I DEFINITELY treats all of my ADD symptoms. However I dunno if its the medicine or me but man most days after 3 or four hours I need a nap after taking it. I mean someone pass me a kindermat right now.

Eh I prefer amphetamines. Ive seen both sides of the arguement. As I said before when my brother takes it, he's a Zombie, when I take it, I am an efficient MACHINE!!!!!!!! alert, aware, attentive, and priority concerned, and ALWAYS have a sense of urgency. But Ill settle for Straterra till I can get the stuff that works better.

i have some lexapro left over, just a little but if you want it, you can have it. i took it for a few weeks and it just wasn't working for me. so i definitely won't be taking it. you're welcome to it.

I just thought I'd add that my son, who is all "doped up" on Strattera, recently tested into the "very superior intelligence" range on his IQ test and has been accepted into the Talented and Gifted program at school. Without such medications, I don't know if he could have focused on the tests they gave him...

I am quite pleased....

you know, i'm "all doped up" as well. antidepressants and stimulants, and i think that i am now the most functional i have ever been. and i have been on ALOT of different meds. it may not be the perfect combination, but its working for me.
i don't get alot of sleep, thats the only downside. i go to bed around 4 and often wake up around 9, and then i'm super productive woman. i can clean the entire house, i can do anything, i even exercise now!?! wtf? i haven't done yoga or pilates in years, but lets break out the tapes now, i'm game.
and i can usually do all that without waking evel up. well, I don't wake her up( i think), the dogs are a different story. drives her nuts.

i'm definitely a fan of medication, not all though. different things work for different people
