Endless 💊

All I can do is just stare at my set of morning meds right now. I find myself doing that a lot lately. The hesitation is always random. As if the pills will vanish along with my diagnosis.

Hi there,

It must really be a struggle at times, but these medications are there to help you. If you are not finding they are improving your mood, then maybe have a meds review with your doctor to find one that suits you better. Also, consider asking him/her for some CBT sessions as these can really help you understand and address unhelpful thought and behaviour patterns that prevent you from moving forward, and why you are 'stuck' not wanting to accept your diagnosis and need for medication.

Stay safe. Take care,

Best wishes,

They say we do not need as much food when we get old. I feel it is all to do with all the medications I take. Like you I would look at them and shudder, Now my Wife has taken over my medications I do not have any chance to look what I am taking.

If you find your medications are not working as well as they should or if you take the medications over a longer period that does not matter as long as you take them at the same time period.
