"Did you take your medication?" "Is is getting time for your pill?" "Forget to medicate today?" Other such remarks
I am getting very disgusted and tired of being asked this every time a family member deems that I am acting hyper or otherwise. I was so fed up when asked this yesterday by an alcoholic family member. I (now regretfully) replied "I sure did, but the big question here is .....did YOU take your Antabuse (sp?)?" That didn't go over ...I wish I hadn't said it now, but maybe they got the picture.
What IS the proper way to handle these snide comments? I am sensitive to others and desire the same for myself. What works in this situation???!!!
