As someone who goes on and off meds all the time, I can tell you that my main problem is denial, typically denial of diagnosis or denial that I need meds. However, sometimes I just don't like side effects, so I'll go off my meds for that too.
Probably the best thing to do is ask her why she did it. You don't have to be mean and say, "ARE YOU STUPID? WHY DID YOU DO IT?", but maybe something gentler instead, like "what's going on with meds? Want to talk about it?" That's what my therapist does and I tell her exactly why.
First step is to identify the problem; second step is to find a solution. Otherwise, how can you find a solution to something you don't even know about?
But idk if I've found a solution to my medication problems. I'm still working on it with my therapist ever since I admitted it to her in January 2017. 10 months. So don't expect a sudden change
