“Loss of physical and emotional connection to anyone. Very foggy mind. Couldn't think through anything clearly. Difficulty expressing feelings. Gained 30lbs in 2 and a half years. Slept 10-12 hours every night and had to take a nap during the day. Showered only once a week and had no desire to look pretty or be hygienic. It took my life away and since stopping it I've noticed a remarkable difference for the better.”
“Apathy, lack of emotions and feelings, lack of thoughts, lack of motivation and desire to do things. The delusions and hallucinations disappeared.”
