Sarah on Are You Ever Tempted to Abandon Your Meds?

I don't consider going off of my meds although they've made me gain weight. I've found weight watchers and am successfully taking off an average of 2 pounds a week. It works! I think of my husband and children first and I wouldn't want to put them through my being off medication and the possible embarrassing things I would do as I have done before. The lithium and my antidressant seem to be doing the trick. I just pray for those who haven't had the fortune of finding the right cocktail mix of meds to soothe their BP like my best friend has. People like that never have the luxury of asking do I want to go off my meds because they haven't found any good ones yet. Something to think about.
