Teacher:you usually all cheerful and noisey
Me:i know
Teacher: could it be your medication that you having?

The best way would be to ask the prescribing doctor or a different one. Another way would be to ask a pharmacist about side effects especially over a long period. The dosage may need to be adjusted or even a different medication prescribed.

I have,t done that yet. I need to finish off these tablets first and then I have to try some other ones. But my stomuch or what ever its called just under neath my stomuch on the left side ' just after I sat down it hurted. And just before that I took my tablet.
That was a few days ago. And it did it again just a few minutes ago when I took my tablet again. Just one and a half tablet as always.
But my mind keeps telling me to push someone against the wall but I don't want to do that because its stupid to do that its been telling me for 2 and a quarter months don't know when I started getting all quiet though. This is,t the normal me my mind is driving me crazy some people saying that am acting strange which I agree with them but I just say mmm.

Why do you have to finish off those tablets first?

What other ones do you have to try? Where did you get them?

My doctor said I have to try them. She says I have to keep taking them till it all finish. And when its all gone we can email my doctor to see if we should keep taking the same tablet or try some different ones. If I still have to take the same ones they might lower it down a bet or leave at the same amount. And don't take them for two days and then start taking them again.
