Yes it is very hard to work in the medical field while on meds. Hospitals do drug testing and having a prescription for something does not mean they will accept you taking medication. I used to work in the medical field. I tried to hide my illness and medication usage. I fainted at work and they wanted to know what was wrong. They said that if I have a disability they can help me. HR said that they would not disclose to my supervisor what was in my file. They got a new supervisor at the place. When I started working slower than they wanted they got into my file and contacted my licenseing board. I was investigated and suspended with pay. It is a long story, but I no longer work and cannot get back into the profession I was trained for. Anyway I hope that gives you good idea what it is like. I worked at a hospital previously and they put so much pressure on me that I quit. I was depressed and anxious. They rode me until I quit. Several co workers ganged up on me and kept contacting my supervisors.

Do well in school and consider if you want to go into a field that prescribes psychiatric medication to people. You seem to be anti med. I would explore being a psychologist because you could give you patients therapy not meds.

It is good that you are teaching and doing yoga. Also are you eligible for any pell grants for school? I think it is impossible to do med school and work from what I have seen.

Best wishes for all your endeavors and healing.
