Something’s not right

So much medication

So much medication

I have a lot of medical conditions along with my mental health conditions, so I take a fair bit of medication, at the moment it is between 36 and 37 tablets a day, 19 different medications and Im over it. Im so sick of taking medication. Its a constant reminder of how many issues Im facing. Im a fair pro at taking them now tho, I take around 15 morning and night and the others scattered through out the day. I can do the 15 in 4 lots, 3 lots for the 6 big ones and the rest in a single handful. But still, it would be nice not to have to take so much medication every day

Re: So much medication

It’s very hard to do what people tell you to do. Are these meds making a difference?

Re: So much medication

@ChouxieChou yeah they do, they make things manageable. Generally speaking none of them actually resolve an issue. Its not so much being told what to do, its being trapped in the continual ritual of having to take them each day just to get to a place where I am able to manage my illnesses. Its the vision of having to take them day in day out for the rest of my life.

If they were an actual cure, like they fixed the problems for say 12 hours and I was "normal" and able to function like everyone else then I think Id feel somewhat differently.

I dont want to sound ungrateful, it could be worse, I might not have the medications its just at the moment, its wearing me out.
