More about meds

First I have to say thanks to the guys who spoke to me today to encourage me about taking care of my meds. I have them now along with a great sense of relief. If you go off your drugs you really do not know what the consequences might be. It is not worth it. What amazes me is how quickly the symptoms can come on once you stop. Headaches and irritability are quick to show up for me and the possibility of spiraling out of control is very real. In the past there were times when I thought I was ready to stop taking my pills and each time it met with very bad results. One time it was close to six months and my family was in a constant state of concern and fear because dad was out of control. Ah, yes, building memories! I sometimes wonder what they talk about when I am not around. It is probably interesting to say the least.
