If you keep reading the Dark Tower, book 4 takes a little bit of a side trip. For me it was a bit boring after the first few books, but book 5 was my favorite of the series, so it's worth it to get through 4, lol. I started reading it when I was a teenager, and it took like 17 years for him to finish it. LONG wait of 7 years between some of the books. But a fabulous story.
I actually read book 4 when I was in my teens but I didn't read the rest of the series. I got it as a Christmas present. I liked 1 due to the awesome use of adjectives it was like candy to read. Book 2 had a much better story and the sci-fi storytelling opportunity of the doors was stellar. I'm in the beginning of book 3 right now. I'm going to read 4 again just because I want to see how things all tie in and it has been over 20 years since I read it (I think).

Isn't that what enlightenment is -- a mind without form!

The medications helped me, I am going to continue to take them. Sorry it's late I can't think of much I want to say at the moment. I will keep you in my thoughts. I think I recall that it seems like you are taking vitamin supplements like me for yourself. I would be glad to photocopy some information I have about vitamin C, NAC and Flush-Niacin (flush is theraputic) maybe you could ask your psychiatrists opinion and test it.
I'll be back
