I know there have been many posts like this one but I have to say what I have to here too.

I'm feeling very uncomfy with having to take meds to operate "normally" here. I tried the without meds things and all hell broke loose.

Just don't like waking up and first thing I have to do is medicate myself, but life doesn't work any other way for me....I have to be on meds period. Don't like the dependency feeling about them ya know??

Just a small little bitch here, common complaint, nothing more. Just for today I will hate MY MEDS!!!

Thanks for reading. ox

I hear you tats. I remember there were times I would sit there and line them all up and just cry.... I felt so defeated by life and my own mind. That I would have to spend the rest of my life with all these meds was overwhelming.

It's fine to bitch about it and I get where you are coming from. (((hugs)))

think of them as vitamins? Something you need to have to function?

Hate mine too. I "appear" healthy, but I have to take a handful of meds every morning. And, every one of them says take with a full glass of water?? Really?? Should I drink four full glasses of water or will one full glass cover all of it??

Oh, and the worst is when I decide I don't need them anymore. That I am HEALED!! By the second day, I am making an emergency run to the pharmacy.

Sigh!! Then I love my meds.

I get it, Tats.

I have the opposite feelings..

I think if I lived 100 years ago, or 200 - I would be locked in a basement of a asylum - I am grateful for a little pill, I throw in with the vitamins!!!!

(((BIG HUG)))) I know it sucks, but tweaking your attitude instead of the meds? Might help!

    So I have been having a lot of health issues and my cardiologist felt that he didn't get clear enough images of my heart in the office, so he wanted to do a Trans-esophegeal heart Echocardiocgram in the hospital. I was pretty nervous about it, because I've never had any procedures related to my heart or any other major organs. I've had knee surgery and thyroid surgery, but to me anything to do...
