For roughly the past two years, I've felt that my mind just isn't functioning quite up to par. I find that I can't think straight, especially when I'm talking to people, or in social situations. This even applies with my famliy and my boyfriend (like my mind will go blank, or I'll forget which words to use). I'm sure that the SSRI's have lowered my creativity some, but might they also be impairing my basic cognitive abilities? It seems to get worse when I'm anxious (which is most of the time now) and, oddly, disappates when I drink alcohol. I've been very, very worried and anxious lately about not feeling right mentally (or physically for that matter--major digestive problems, sugar-cravings/overeating, etc.). So does anyone else feel...well, stupid from taking their medication? What can I do about this?
