On Medication….
I’m finally starting to feel better in some ways. I’m able to get up and move around, spend time with friends and family and even take some time for myself with out getting really depressed or having a mood swing. My medication was upped so that has something to do with it. In truth, I hate taking the pills and sometimes it’s a struggle to get myself to take them. “I feel better so I don’t need them,” I think to myself. However I know things don’t work that way. I am beginning to look at medication differently.
Do you think someone that needs to take heart medication everyday is weak? What about insulin dependent diabetics? They can go on to lead a normal life. And so can I!
For some reason society has a negative connotation of those that take psychoactive medication. And I have found myself buying into that hook, line and sinker. It is as if taking pills to make your brain chemicals stable masks the real you. This is not the case. I am turning my thinking around and you should too.
