I would much rather not be reliant on meds, but I am...and I'd rather be functional than non functional or dead...so I take my meds to keep myself sane/safe.
I absolutely hate how many meds I'm on and the list is getting longer. I never know how to tell my pdoc yes I feel these meds are a good mix. I don't have anything to compare to feeling normal. What's that? It does seem like there's a place in between zombie and hysteria, but I can't say I've found it through meds.
