One of the struggles I’ve had being Independent.

Medication Management

Whenever I get it, I get it.

Everyone enjoys me and I can manage life.

I know medication is not for everyone.

But for me, it’s a life saver.

It means I can function and be some kind of normal.

It also means that it comes with struggles.

The tiredness.

I want to eat all the time, although if I keep busy, it diminishes.

The side effects outweigh what I am without it.

It’s been a rollercoaster of thoughts about it for the better part of nearly four years.

But many things that I believe are caused simply aren’t true.

Myth after myth, I’ve busted them.

I get it. Medication is a necessity for managing all my challenges, I don’t get to pick and choose what I don’t want to take care of.

Because I am the person who everyone knows best, not someone who isn’t their best.

I thankfully understand and hopefully, can strive for continual adherence so I never have to go down that rocky road again

But if I do I must learn that it’s okay and I must regain the course sooner than I have in the past.
