I was good at taking it every day at the right time for years until my recent backpacking trip. I left in a hurry and forgot my meds, and then I never went back to my ex-boyfriend's house where I was living to pick them up and now I'm living with my sister, with nothing but her stuff and what I brought on my trip in a backpack haha. It's a complex situation, but basically I've been off meds for a month now. I'm not doing any worse so I think I'll just wait until I get a new psychiatrist to get back on them. I was only on Trileptal anyways.
