So today, to see if I could gauge if these strange emotional...thingummies had anything to do with my meds, I went without them for a day. This was doubly beneficial since I chucked the bottle at the wall last night in a fit of rage and a few of the pills powderized when the lid split open, so consider me being economy-conscious as well. If I had to ask Dr. _____ for a new prescription early he might ask me awkward questions. Like why I'd thrown my pills at the wall in a fit of rage.
I'm considering the experiment to not be so much a failure as ineffective. I stayed in my room most of the day so I didn't have any outside stimulus to work against, and thus while I had no anger issues or violent episodes of paranoid anxiety I also had nothing that could have set them off but didn't. Most I got was the usual dizziness and mild upset stomach, but that happens every time I go off my meds so it means nothing besides withdrawal symptoms.
I'll pick the pills back up again tomorrow, if only because I've got schoolwork and a Samhain presentation to do and I'd rather be in optimum condition when I do them.
Also, happy birthday to my mum, aka
moonstarwing. Not that she reads my LJ that much anymore, but the sentiment's there.
