I haven't asked, because I know better. Medications haven't fixed me, but I'm light-years away from where I was ten months ago and for the first time in my life, nobody has to fight me to take them. I used to be one of those people who resisted taking meds because I didn't want to be "dependent" on them to function normally. Now I know that I'm one of those BPers who cannot manage their lives without meds, and I'm okay with that.
