I don't know really where to start with this post. I feel like I've lost my sense of humor somewhere between divorce and being diagnosed bipolar and ADHD. The treatment involves several medications that change me. It is really hard to describe but I feel different than I used to feel about a lot of things. For example, comedy that I used to think was funny, is no longer funny. Being serious is a person I have become but have not been able to figure out how to change it. I think that it is possible but what I have to take suppresses everything but serious. I know there are people out there who deal with this challenge. It is hard to change when there are outside conditions that cannot be controlled. I hope that comments will share other struggles that people have dealt with. I would appreciate it. I will try not to be so serious but it is difficult.
Thanks so much for sharing. It's difficult to really appreciate how life might effect us all and how some solutions might demand something unexpected from us. I had a friend who went on meds to deal with her depression but she felt like it was dulling too much of her personality. Fortunately she found other meds that took the depression edge off without turning her into a walking zombie. I feel like given what you seem to have been dealing with you deserve an "A" for taking steps to move forward.
