The first time I was put on medication I stopped without talking to the prescribing doctor. The second time I was put on 3 medications and again, I stopped all of them at once without doctor's approval. I got help a third time and was put on 7 medications. I did good.. I was faithful to my medication schedule for over a year, but yet again I stopped. I didn't discuss it with the doctor and what's more I stopped seeing my therapist too!

I've come to the realization that I need to be medicated. I am trying to accept it. But before I try once more I want to get my mindset right. I want to be sure that I can stick to it this time. (Each time I stopped my meds I got worse- I don't want to get any worse than I already am.)

So how?? How do you stick to your medication?

I was told by my therapist to look at it as if I had diabetes, but to be completely honest even if I had diabetes I'm not sure I would stick to my meds.

Any advice that anyone could give me would be greatly appreciated!!
