| Thanks everyone. I guess you guys are right. I was me before the test and I'll be the same person afterwards but I can't wait until next year so that whatever he has to say will have paled in my memory....and I hope I remember some of the things you guys wrote after the feedback session this week...... |

| wow, it's nice to know it has a name since that means people have actually heard of it. So is depersonalization or derealization something that most people experience then? |

| This stuff sounds scary. I have to take 20mg each day. I'm not sure I want to do it. I wish I could be sure it would work but I can't. What if I tried it for two days and didn't like it. Would I still have side effects if I stopped taking it. |
