My med's stopped working

and I'm typing from the psyc hospital trying really hard to get out of this hell hole I've dropped into.

Hoping the new meds make a difference soon so I can join SR everyday

Glad you were able to get a minute to check in. I hope they get your meds situation soon. It can definately be frustrating when they stop working. It seems like I have to have mine tweaked ever 6 months or so. But I am constantly on guard for signs and symptoms that they are not working.

You will get out,,,,alive and sober. Then you need to do what it takes to maintain.
You aren't alone, remember that.

You are definitely in the right place right now. What meds are you currently on? My previous meds stopped working and then my general family doc put me on just lexapro which put me in a mania for 3 months. I'm finally on a cocktail of meds that is working so far.

I really hope your new meds work for you.

Medication does make a difference but it's not a miracle. Listen to the people around you and learn what you can from the experience. It feels like jail until you get out and relize you were safe there. Make sure you find your support team for those dark moments.
