    Woah! I’m on 40mg and tend to be really sensitive to these types of drugs, so it hit me like a wall. I’m starting to even out, but my ability to stay focused on something is nuts. I worked on a freaking puzzle this week! WTH? Even my siblings have made multiple unprompted comments about my focus and calmness. And, I’m starting to fall asleep unaided and without laying in bed for 2+ hours. It’s super weird. I hope they work out for you! 😀

      Buddy, you’re living the gold standard that I’m striving for. Thank you, hopefully there’s light at the end of this tunnel for me!

        Well, my Willy Wonka not working so good, so it’s not perfect. I’m gonna ride it out for a month to see what happens. I see the psych in the first half of next month, and will let them know to see if there are any remedies. But aside from that, it’s been amazing! Let me know if it starts working for you.

          I hear you. My lead singer doesn’t want to perform much either, and my wife’s meds keep the venue closed, anyway. I’m out of euphemisms, but, hey, such is life.
