I don't laugh hysterically for "long periods of time", I just laugh occasionally, sometimes hysterically, at something I was thinking about. Whenever I laugh at something I was thinking about, it is pretty much the normal length of time for a laugh. I'm pretty sure it's the medication that's making me do that though. If I was on a lower dose of medication, I'd probably never laugh at all, because I would be too busy disciplining/depriving myself. That's how it works for me.

As long as I keep taking the satanic pill everyday, I will never be the way I am supposed to be: disciplined.

I don't really care, though, if it's "better" for me to be on a higher dose for a very long time. I already know that all it does is corrupt me.


kk So when you're talking about lowering dosages, you're talking about having a lower dosage prescribed by your doctor, correct?

I'm just talking about simply taking a lower dose. Psychiatrists can't force you to take a certain dose. Otherwise, I would just stop seeing them. And if I stopped seeing them, I wouldn't be taking any dose at all. Now which is better by the psychiatrist's terms: taking a lower dose, or not taking any dose at all?
