She was working with Lilly on an experimental drug at that time- and it caused her mind to start thinking 'whacky'. Two years ago, my doctor put me on that same drug because of the chronic pain that I live with. I was scared of it, but he assured me it was a safe drug. Guess what? Four weeks into my treatment, I started having suicidal thoughts. I am def NOT a suicidal person. I recognized it for what it was and called my doc- who immediately stopped the drug. The withdrawals were a nightmare and took almost 3 months to completely recover from !!!!! HORRID experience.
The mind is FRAGILE. We should handle it with great care.

do you mind sharing what drug that was?
people just have no clue what these drugs are doing...
Several years ago I started taking Strateria (sp) for Adult ADHD. It made me want to fight. I mean serious violent desires. I recognized it pretty quick and stopped but like you it took a few weeks to get back to normal.
Thank God I didnt do something really stupid.
