simple words

one day I will find the right words and they will be simple

so completely done.

I will not regret saying this. After this month, I am off prescribed medication for good and frankly, most over the counter too. I can’t deal with this bullshit anymore. I’m ready and willing to deal with any consequences.

I’m sick of doctors telling me that a certain medication will work for me without even considering what’s written in my file or the side effects. This is the fourth time I haven’t slept a wink, the second on a Wednesday night, the night I actually need sleep due to my crazy Thursday schedule. The rest of the time I’ve been extremely exhausted 24/7. This medicine either makes me feel extremely exhausted to the point where I’m falling asleep pretty much everywhere or so wide awake that I don’t sleep for hours. It’s enough. I haven’t had this bad insomnia since 9th grade when WHAT a SURPRISE I was on medication. 

My anxiety has gotten way worse in the last month I’ve been on these pills. My chest tightens every day. I get anxious when I eat and sleep. I’ll wake up having the sweats or shivering to death. My anxiety is bad enough, do I really need something to make it worse?

This is why I hate doctors. I don’t believe in health care because it is a waste of money. Honestly, why are we paying these people to do their jobs when they can’t even do it correctly? So over this bullshit. If I’m sick, let me sit through the pain. Let me live in pain because all this medication is doing is making it worse.
