Like freaking for real! My religious sister who is a nun at a cult was like “isn’t the point of medication and therapy so you can be off them.” I was like Bruh I’m a lesbian auDHD for life. I was sxually abused as a child who developed letters and chronic diagnoses due to being untreated and undiagnosed until I could afford to go to a doctor. My parents and their “church” covered up any sexual abuse story at the church which forced me to believe my abuse was impure thoughts and I sinned.

My antipsychotics are as low as they can as it is. I'm probably never getting off my meds because everytime we've tried I have become manic, depressed, psychotic or a mix of all 3. My focus is being well enough to parent my 2 kids not coming off meds. Med free isn't really a goal we are looking at...even with the side effects I'm managing.

Medications are lifesavers for those who need it!!
