I recently tried again to go med-free. I remember feeling pretty good for the first couple days, experienced feelings that were hidden underneath the meds. I could think clearly again- what a joy!
Then it hit. My depression is an anxiety-filled type. The experience of being in this is nothing short of hell. Nothing I can do or say will calm me down out of my agitated, anxious, hyper mania state I get into when I'm med-free.
I don't have a choice. I cannot live like that. It wouldn't be possible, unless I kept myself stoned and drunk 24/7- but that almost killed me , too.
Now I am slowly trying to get on meds again. I'm having a hard time finding something to work for me, but when I do find something I can take that helps me I will not try to go med-free again.
