Drugs!!!

My sister once told me that a customer who was taking antidepressants was experiencing weird little shocks in her brain, with twitching and head pain. The head pharmacist where she worked said that the "zaps" were a common side effect of that type of antidepressant.

And there are people who fight tooth and nail just to get a prescription to these things!?

Yeah, I get those when I miss a dosage. It's horrible. I find myself unable to focus on anything, even simple conversations or chores around the house, until the symptoms have been relieved.
 
(My withdrawal was nothing compared to watching my mother withdraw from Effexor, though, after seeing what torture that "medicine" causes, it makes me ill that it is legal.)

It's a necessary evil for me. The withdrawal is a bitch, even just a few hours of missing a dose is horrible. On the other hand, I was never able to break out of my depression until I tried it.

That just goes to show you, despite what some people may say, that depression is very real. Sometimes the benefits outweigh the risks, even when the side effects can be truly horrific.
 
I had a Diazapam perscription, it made me a bit testy, bud damn if my heart rate didn't didn't stay steady under stress

what your saying is that these "zaps" i get are ,,, abnormal and as a "side-effect" to the antidepressants I am take, what ever,, I mean that they really are not that interesting at all and happen when-ever they happen and have little to no meaning to them..

but still, I may introduce them into the video works I create. :)
