Oh, I hope I was being clear that it is just my personal reaction.
And you're probably taking it on a regular basis, which I'm not supposed to do even if it were the greatest drug in the world because I'm trying to keep my triglycerides and blood glucose levels down.
I think it might be a great drug as a sleep aid on an as needed basis. But for what I need, the way it works probably isn't going to help me on an as needed basis.
That's the great and horrible thing about these meds. Everyone's reaction is different. One man's miracle is another's disaster.
But isn't that fascinating in a way? Most drugs are so much more predictable. As far as I know, glucose lowering drugs lower glucose levels and don't raise them. Blood pressure pills bring lower, not higher blood pressure. But psych drugs can do anything and everything to any given individual.
I'm glad you've found something that works for you. That's my fervent wish for everyone.
