I've had so many different meds over the years and still looking for something effective but it seems like it's taking forever.
Sometimes I also think they're poison and then I prefer to be 'crazy' than taking those 'deadly' things.
It drives my psych nuts and we're running out of options. Don't know how to deal with this...

This is exactly what I experience. I will forget to take a medication, once I remember, I think to myself "I take so much medication and I know it's poisoning my body, maybe I should just stop taking them. Heck, maybe I don't even need them anymore." I then think about the side effects and just the sheer number of pills I have to swallow and I decide it's too many and the side effects are too uncomfortable. Then I start slipping down, and I realize I need to take the medicine. I don't want to take medicine. It's an unending cycle.
