@southwest You are probably right. Shame because some forms of this disease are difficult but livable with medicine. I think getting the right cocktail of drugs is a difficult process, but when it works, those days (or hours) are nice. Really nice.

Every once in a while, when my mind is clear and stress is low, I get these two to three-hour period where everything is so loose and I am my old self (when the medicine has mostly worn off at night.) It doesn't happen often (maybe every few months), but I distinctly remember those periods, which are usually at night when my medicine has worn off. Anybody else get those? I think mine has a lot to do with my state of mind.

@nova11723 I'm beginning to understand junkies. Sitting there waiting for the meds to kick in (which does not always happen) and that wonderful feeling when everything turns loose. I get a glimpse of the person I used to be.
