My mind on different medications

It seems like I had a totally different view of the world when I am on different medications.  For a while, I was on no medications and I basically had a mind of a child.  When I started college, I did not get the concept and I did not even want to go to college.  It was something I had to do, but I didn't get the concept - it was probably some cool thing you seen in movies, but in real life it is a scary place.  It seems like I was here for the ride and it was a very stressful experience.  I did not want to meet anyone new because the people there were too old and intimidating for me.  I was in there mostly for play - like I really enjoyed the audio recording and I played a lot of video games, and I went back to the high school a lot.  Even past high school, younger kids were sucking on to me and that was getting creepy.

Now, when I jacked it up to a 40 mg pill, I was thinking more like a high school freshman.  My concept of college is just like high school, but in reality it is not like high school.  But in my mind, I honestly thought it was high school.  I was obsessing on fitting in and making new friends, while everyone else have other things on mind and they realize they can find friends anyway.  I had feelings of loneliness and despair.   I did not have any concept of what I was going into, but at least I was taking classes just like high school and fitting in was more important.  It was very tough thinking like a high school freshman when everyone was done with it.

Then it was jacked up to 60 mg.  I finally got the concept of college and I knew I had to get my act together, but it didn't really complete the picture.  I still was hanging on to a lot of high school stuff, but I knew I had to figure out something someday, but I don't know what.  I was more interested in relationships and very good friendships instead of getting an education and getting my shit together.  I knew it was on the horizon, but it was something that was on the back of my mind.

In the last month, I was at 100% and things are starting to fall into place.  I am thinking in present and getting the concept of the college.  I am thinking about more mature thoughts than ever before and I am getting things figured out.  I think there is hope in the future.  I am stressing out about the things that truly important in life, and I realize that people do like me, but I need to work on liking them back.  I am getting help and moving forward; making progress like I should be doing and I am thinking more in the present and think high school was decades ago.  It was 3 years ago and the time was long gone, and better days are to come.  Now I am starting to get pissed off taking classes that are a waste of time when I have a good idea of what I want to go into. The world is not a scary place anymore, and I am getting exciting about the things that are going to happen in the future.  Things are starting to click.

It was like a great awakening...It is a great awakening.  I was in a dark age for so long then I had a great realization - like an Enlightenment.  The effect is going to wear out and things are going to be going good.  I felt like I am finally going to fight this crisis.

But now I am going to fight this stressful end of the year and have an enjoyable Christmas.
