I've struggled with taking meds. I never understood the concept of "take your meds even if you feel good."

Today, I'm 28 days consistent taking my meds and I feel so. damn. great.

Keep going friends

SC1: I'm on Trintellix, my third med. I was on Zoloft. But if can help anything, the first 2 weeks are the hardest. You might not feel anything but you gotta keep going!

SC1: well it didn't help that I sucked at taking my meds, but it was the first one I was prescribed. When I had to find a new psychiatrist when I moved to Chicago, his solution was to just doubled my dosage to 100mg. It was awful and I hated it. I was falling asleep everywhere and couldn't function. By the time I got to my psychiatrist now, he was appalled that the last one didn't just suggest something else. So that's when he introduced Lexapro. Was great but that weight gain side effect was AWFUL.

Yes! Please take your meds and see a therapist weekly to gauge your progress. If your meds are not working then they will help you find other options. I love what SrArtDirector1 said "this is what normal feels like?!". That is exactly how I felt when I started Zoloft. It takes about a month to really take effect. It gets better so keep it up☺️

Looking for some perspective: we just got a brand new $2,000 glass top 78" dining table. I asked my husband to please use a table cloth when he uses that table for d&d with his friends to avoid scratches and the loud dice on the table. He got upset that I "don't let him enjoy our stuff," that I "hate the sound of him having fun," and he says I am being unreasonable. From my perspective, I just want to preserve this expensive piece of furniture that we both love. Am I being unreasonable?
