    who criticize medications, I am living proof that medications can help. I am diagnosised w/ bipolar disorder and ADHD. I take lithium, abilify, lexapro, seroquel, ritalin, and ambien cr, all at low doses. I have felt depressed for a while, off and on. I've been on medication for almost a year.

    Today was the best that I've felt in a REALLY long time. It was the best "normal" feeling that I've ever had. It wasn't like a manic feeling, it was just a great feeling to have in general. I don't feel "deadened" in any way, in fact, I feel more creative than ever. This creativity is something that I control, not something that controls me.

    To those who take medication, you can feel better. The right medication won't turn you into a zombie or deaden your soul. There is hope for you and I am living proof of that.

    Peace and love

    I definitly agree. Medicine and drugs don't have to be a bad thing, as long as they are taken in the right circumstances and taken correctly.

    I'm glad meds are working for you!!!
