That fake last Calvin and Hobbes comic gets me so MAD

Copied for you, too:

I don't know. I feel like meds definitely change some peoples personality to a more "robotic" one. As an extremely creative person, my creativity has definitely lessened on medication. Instead, I get work done, but mostly school work, not creative work. I can only do one at the time, unfortunately, at the moment anyway. Can not focus on two huge projects.

You see, without meds my mind wanders freely and compulsively. I don't get anything done, so I spend it being creative. On meds, I do this a lot less. being creative is a mode of being, too, not just raw talent, so I think the sentiment is valid, although the comic strip is needlessly oversimplified. The positive aspects of meds are lifechanging.
