It's great Breadfish that you have a system that works for you. It sounds like your condition requires a lot of support from different sources and that you're getting it. It would drive me crazy, though, to have such rigid rules and I'm afraid that my former or my current psychiatrist would be (indulgently maybe) annoyed if I always relayed to them a detailed list of when I did or did not use the drugs they've prescribed. It doesn't seem like anyone on this thread anyway just pops pills without trying to cope first.
