i tend to be a bit of a yapper, very loud (theres an interesting reverse-masking thing going on there, which if anyones interested, lmk and ill explain) and tend to be quite rude.

really inside, im a quiet person, but i tend to impulsively speak and be loud, and say things i dont really want to say, e.g. being rude.

these are things i really want to deal with. when i talk less, and be quieter like i am inside, i tend to be much happier. does anyone have any tips?

Oh, man, no. Meds merely help you to manage the impulses.

Parents that deny their kids meds (in ignorance) really piss me off.

I'm probably your grandparents age, I've seen this nonsense a lot in my own family.

Meds are like crutches when you have a cast on - they help you with impulse control so you then have brain cycles to dedicare to learning new ways of thinking/processing.

yeah they sound really good, i struggle with pills for a few reasons‎ but those reasons would be worth getting over imo, but i dont even get the chance
