"oh, i didn't mean to sound melodramatic (i'm wont to) but it is true that i can't really protest...since my parents beleive my dysfunctionalities run deep (cough)......it's really not going to be fun for me if i object to taking the things. i don't really know how to put it, "arguement" doesn't really cover it anymore because the reason for my prescription is that i'm mute. i lost my voice about....two months ago now. there's nothing wrong with my vocal chords but i just...can't talk. i suppose they think if i'm happier my voice might come back?
i mentioned it in a "but perhaps i should try hiding them under my tongue?" kind of way...as in....i don't yet have an adverse opinion of them, but obviously not a positive one either, so i was trying to form one.
i'm looking at the website now; and though obviously it's biased i'm sure there is truth in it. the problem is that it seems to focus a lot on what i would suspect to be isolated or dubiously linked cases of side effects? so it seems to end up listing every nasty bodily reaction there exists.
nightmares and vivid dreams are ok with me. just as long as my recall or my length of REM isn't affected - we'll see how it is after....some weeks? or can the side effects kick in before the effect of medication?
oh, and r3m0t, the word for a placebo that causes harm is a 'nocebo'. and i do perhaps agree....i am a little hypochrondriac sometimes, heh."
