    You never know why someone isn’t taking medicatio

    Allow me to demonstrate. I was diagnosed at 27, turned 29 in February, all of the following are reasons I’ve been off my meds:

    • Traveling for work and changing my pickup pharmacy too often triggered a response where no pharmacy would fill me for 2 months other than the one by my house I was only near for 1 week of every 4
    • Dr dying and having a near impossible time getting s replacement because my GP refused to honor my diagnosis from “oUt oF nEtWoRk”
    • Dr constantly being 30-45 minutes late to appointments and dropping me when I complained about it
    • Insurance suddenly deciding that my meds WERENT MEDICALLY NEEDED, ACTUALLY
    • losing my job (2x)
    • lack of therapeutic care alongside medication resulting in relapse of depressive symptoms due to perceived lack of change while on ADHD meds and flushing them and having a full on meltdown and suicide attempt
    • My wife asking about the status of my prescription and the pharmacy deeming that “suspicious activity” and dropping me
    • Every pharmacy in my area bar 1 treating me like a druggie every time I tried to move my script to them. Every. Time.
