I've been on a couple different antipsychotics before, so here's what I've noticed.
When I'm not on meds a typical day in the kitchen goes like this:
1. I move around gracefully while cooking.
2. I orchestrate potatoes, veggies, and meat in the oven with ease.
3. I sit down and enjoy my meal, and look forward to cooking another.
When I'm on meds:
1. I feel uptight and uncomfortable while cooking.
2. Timing my potatoes, veggies, and meat in the oven becomes very stressful.
3. By the time I'm done cooking I've got the shakes, and I don't look forward to cooking again.
Now If this theory is right, than just imagine someone with a guilty conscience going out in public. The sorry individual would be a nervous wreck.
So is this therapy, treating the illness, or just plain adding insult to injury in making a situation a lot worse than it originally was?
If this is treatment I'd hate to see punishment. In my opinion it's madness, and I think the real loonies are running the asylum. For me to support this kind of stupidity defies all my logic. The only way I could defend these drugs is if I was financially benefiting from them. I've posted this to remind people to remember how they were before they took the good old pharmaceutical mind soup. Things can be as they were if people would just learn to realize that their thoughts are just thoughts, nothing more. All thoughts arise to the surface of your still mind, where they bubble and eventually pop. All thoughts have a birth and a death, and some should just be left to die peacefully.

If there wasn't a problem in the first place as in the cooking first example. Why did you get prescribed medication.
Yep big pharma make money out of it. If you have problems with individual meds, get them changed.
I used to enjoy cooking before too, pain in the arse that I don't anymore but a damned sight better than thinking that I am somehow responsible for the mess the world seems to get itself into. When all that I can really control is my awareness of it.
If you don't cook with local produce then you are contributing to the problem WTF! |

Do Some Meds Cause Stress?
