> Hi bluedog,Sometimes the timing gets scary. Just as I read your post I was listening to "Travelin' Band" by CCR and John Fogerty is screaming "747 comin' outta da sky....". Actually, I did grow up and lead a productive life after the 60s but still go back to "drugs-sex-n'-rockn'-roll" and "if it feels good do it" (only in my head these days, would never survive the real thing). My congratulations to you and your brother....truly an accomplishment in todays market. Please give me the title of the recording so I can buy it.
Yes, completely off pstims these days. Took a very hard fall in 1985 - got up to 200mg/day for 6 months, lost enough weight to look like one of those poor soles from the holocaust. A "kindly" old pdoc (who taught hard lessons) put me in a psyc. unit for 6 weeks and took me off "cold turkey".....I don't think there is anything quite like amphetamine psychosis! When you end up about 2 days "premortem" you learn the lesson. I really can't say how much effect this had on my current TRD, I had Major Unipolar Depression long before the "speed" experience and the lethargy and fatigue have always been a major part of it. I just keep looking for answers like everyone else here at pbabble. I am very impressed with the knowledge that the young people have here and feel privileged to be part of it.
I wish you the very best,
Geezer
