Q: I am having a little problem right now. I feel like I have lost my fire and drive for success. I make stellar grades and I hold top positions around campus. About a month ago, I had major surgery and I was on loritab off and on for about 3 weeks. I have a strong feeling that the loritab caused my lack of energy and my apathy for about everything.

What can I do to get my motivation back? And what can I do to get back to how I was before my surgery?
I'm going to have to tell you, you can't go back, only forward.
If it is only the meds, then it should wear off by itself.
Try not to think too much, relax and have fun!

Write down a couple of (reasonable) things you would like to do, throw them in a hat, draw one, give yourself a reasonable amount of time to complete it AND JUST DO IT! And have fun! And if you aren't having fun... try to fake it, maybe you'll have some by accident.
When your done, add a couple to the hat, and start again.

else go talk to your doctor about the effects of the drugs, and ask his advice.

Best of Luck!

Thanks, I never thought of that before... I was trying to do EVERYTHING I was behind on lol :)
