I can't speak to this from the perspective of the medications you were taking. I don't know all that much about them myself. (I've taken a few in the past. But not anymore.) You don't mention what type of work you do. Perhaps you've mentioned that in previous posts? However, simply from an employability perspective, there are perhaps a couple of things to consider here.

You wrote that you don't really need the money. And you mentioned you'd be looking for a new job, not returning to a current one. That's important because looking for work can be a tiring, mentally draining process. At least that's the case where I live. I presume it's probably similar where you are. You need to be at your best in order to "compete" successfully. Plus, even if you get hired, your new employer is presumably going to be watching you to see how you perform. And if they get the idea that you're perhaps going to be a problem, they'll let you go. Then you're right back where you started from. There again... at least that's the way it is where I live. Perhaps it's different where you are.

On the other hand, getting out & looking for a new job can be anxiety provoking in-&-of-itself. It's one of those things that's easy to put off... sort-of like going to the dentist! So it's important not to just keep putting it off because you just can't face getting out there & doing what you have to do to look for work. As a result your situation, from a vocational perspective, is kind-of a balancing act it seems to me. On the one hand you don't want to go out & start looking for new employment before you're ready. That's just asking for trouble. But on the other hand, you also need to guard against falling into the trap of becoming so anxious about looking for work that it becomes some sort of monster you can't bear to face.

The fact that you don't really need the money at the moment is helpful. It gives you a cushion. One possibility, if such is available to you where you live, might be to start out by doing some volunteer work... maybe just a few hours per week. It would get you out-&-about, doing things in public, & meeting new people. Some of those people may end up knowing of new job openings you could apply for even before they get listed on-line, in the newspaper, etc. It's much easier to slide into a job on that basis than it is to try to compete successfully against everyone else who's looking & who saw the same job listing you saw. Anyway those are my thoughts with regard to your post.
