Dear Anthony, Thanks for the links, it explained a lot to me. By the way my husband has been on Ideral. Livng with him while he was on it was weird to say the least. He did some truly scary things on it, as if he felt like he was immune to consequences. Then from there he would just fall out and sleep for hours. I called his doctor, explained the behavior and how I felt it was totally inappropriate for him to sleep with his gun, which he had taken to doing shortly after taking the prescribed dosage after about a week. His bullying increased as well as his obstinance in public. It was all in all a bad scene. Not to mention embarassing. His reactions were not in balance with what was happening in reality. Observing this and attempting to get him to see this was futile. Nothing would placate him. After getting off the drug he went back to being his normal jerk self. I can live with that. It was this "I'm bullet proof" mindset that seemed so scary to me. Now, after reading how it works and what it does and how it affects the patient I can honestly say that for someone else it may be fine but in my husband's case it was not.

Love, map9
