I'm realizing that work is a dangerous situation for me lately. I absolutely need meds to deal with those people. I need the job at the moment. I need the moolah. Therefore I cannot make the life change of quitting at the moment.
I do realize that my life makes sense because of meds. I just don't understand the belief in my head that tells me that I am "cured" and that I do not need my meds. Well, I guess they don't call this mental illness for nothing.
