In reply to Acceptance Of Meds Gives Me Happiness, posted by bulldog2 on June 14, 2010, at 16:32:18
I've started to feel a lot better once i accepted my meds. But first i had to accept my condition. I went on for so many year trying to act like nothing was wrong. When i finally got in therapy and started taking my illness seriously i improved very fast.
I started to take my meds very seriously and started working on diet, exercise and vitamins as well. I know that the source of my condition is very biological but i also know there are psychological issues too. My doc feels that we will be able to reduce my doses and in turn reduce any possible side effects or poor outcomes from long term use of these drugs, but i know in my heart that i will always take a good mood stabilizer and a handful of vitamins every morning.
No doubt about it!
