Wow. It’s still pretty intense. I had gas (halothane?) as a 6 year old in about 1991 and they took about 10 teeth…a weird minty smell and then echoes. I woke up with a headache and a strange feeling where my teeth were.

That poll was revealing, was not expecting average of 30-40 :0 Good idea though!

My first memory of TV was Gorbachev talking to Thatcher.

They’ve actually made me depressed because of the numbing, anhedonia, lack of drive “spark”. The original problem I took them for is long managed - but trying to get off after years is terrible.

It made it a shade easier to overcome OCD - BUT a decade on I feel drowsy, oversleeping, dulled intelligence and creativity, difficult to feel pleasure “driving with the handbrake on” These meds need to have a yearly review factored in - 10+ years of use make it almost impossible to come off (even with good advice and the liquid form (that can taper 1mg change at a time) I had to BEG for in the UK. The standard advice of splitting pills for moving doses means a change far too large to handle (2.5mg is a massive drop). The brain and all its systems get very used to having more serotonin and resist this change with terror, confusion and upset. I’m on 7mg after starting with 10mg then 9, 8… and it gets tougher with each drop (no professional had any advice to give except try to come off in a few weeks :0 ).
