yes this is true. This is why when I was forced to take these drugs and I told them that I would not take them after they released me they kept me another 3 months. During that time I refused any pills they gave me. I honestly feel that sometimes when I space out it is a side effect of the drugs I was forced to take. It bothers me now more than before as my children are getting older and they make me more aware of when I do this.
