I think we can all agree that when you start a new drug that the side effects often diminish over a few weeks or months.
I also think that you get used to it. In part you get used to feeling bad. In part you learn how to do everything you need to, so it doesn't seem as bad.
The reason I say this is because when I have gone off some meds I couldn't believe how good I felt off them. I also find that I am not very good at telling how "bad" the side effects are. They give you brain fog, so you just aren't thinking as clearly.
It's mostly when you go from feeling "normal" (more or less) to "on meds" that you really notice the difference. Once you are medicated for so long you can't remember very well what "normal" feels like.
What do you think?
