Dear Lindsey:

I just had an early brunch that included home made fresh bread just out of the oven, so understandably, I feel very, very good.

Reads to me that these meds have not and are not working for you, so the general objective of getting off all of them reads like an excellent choice, but it will be very difficult because of the addiction factor/ the adjustments your brain already made so to accommodate these powerful drugs brought into your brain and body. You will feel badly coming off them, not because they were good for you, or helpful (they definitely cured nothing at all!) but because, like heroine, they are addictive.

So do it with a psychiatrist’s help, gradually and very, very slowly, get off all of them, one at a time- and not so to accommodate yet another drug- but so to be drug free.

The new guy who is younger, well you said you look younger and always have looked younger, so the age difference is no concern of mine, my only concern is to not have an M- repeat.

Soon I will be going on my daily 3.5 mile walk (that helps when getting off drugs, by the way), and back to the computer a bit later.
