Jun. 8th, 2013 11:25 amI'm on a new medication now.
It is Olanzapine. Currently I am taking 5 mg, which is a fairly low dose.
I feel very different right now. I no longer have rapid thoughts that make me talk to myself, in fact part of me feels like I'm not thinking at all. A few days ago I told my roommate that I believed that silence is the absence of thought. That very well could be true in my case.
I don't have internal rages anymore (at least for now) and I'm not suffering from anxiety or panic attacks. But still, I don't like this. It is like I can't think anymore, like I have become less intelligent. Obviously, I still am to an extent, but I feel as if I have been chemically lobotomized. I don't think as deeply as I used to.
I hope that I adjust somehow. I doubt it, but it is possible. Oh well; I could be on worse things.
