Changes i've noticed since I've been on medication. (including some from the previous post)
- my head is quieter... i don't get distracted as easily
- i have better attention to read longer things without randomly thinking about other things
- similarly, i can 'think' a song from beginning to end. Previously, i'd be thinking the words/melody, but my brain woud constantly race ahead of itself and i'd skip around... or i'd forget i was thinking the song, and think about something else
- when i sit in my chair at work, i sit with better posture
- I'm more awake in the mornings and night on less coffee
- things that used to give me anxiety/stress do so less. I can almost shrug them off. of course when that was a primary motivator to get things done, suddenly that motivation is gone.
- when i look at text, i see the letters more literally and less symbolically (I can't read upside-down well anymore)
- when i "zone out" which doesn't happen often, instead of defocusing on something far away, it get sharper
