I mean... what would you tell me if I refused to take them for this reason or that reason, and then I said I just can't do this and get by. Wouldn't people tell me that I am not doing everything that I can? I just don't get it.

For me it's many reasons.
One-the side effects can suck.
Two-embarrassing
I still am coming to terms with it. But like My sister's tell me, one in particular has to take 3 different meds for high blood pressure and 2 (i think)for thyroid. She tells me all the time "what's the difference?" Well it's my brain that's not functioning. Idk, I was shamed about them in a organization I was in, in the past. I think that has a lot to do with it.
