    before meds, my apartment was a disaster! Every single surface was packed with papers and other unneeded junk. On meds, it turns out I hate clutter. Maybe I've hated clutter all these years, but my brain just never was able to sort out the mess.

    This! Let’s end pill shaming! I want to be able to get out of bed in the morning, wash my hair, leave my house, and have an active lifestyle. Instead of sleeping 14 hours a day and walking through the other 10 in a fog.

    They help me focus and do my best creative work. I don’t want to sit in front of the computer for eight hours feeling shame for not being able to write if I don’t have to.
