I was prescribed Prozac last week, and I was told that it would turn me into a zombie, my thought processes would be unintelligible, and I thought I would turn into a vegetable.
I LIKE that my thought processes are slowed. Now I can actually HOLD a thought, and my mind isn't buzzing when it's time for sleep at night, like usual.
I'm getting an appropriate amount of sleep every night, and for some reason, I don't need to smoke all that much at all anymore. I just don't feel anxious.
Maybe I AM a zombie now--but I like it, I think. I'm not particularly happy, but I'm not particularly sad. But I'm FUNCTIONING.
And THAT is an improvement.
