Medication Lapses and Social Consequences
Does anyone else have issues getting to see their doctor for prescription meds and end up reaping unfortunate social consequences? This has happened to me a number of times and I just can't seem to get a handle on it. I'm stuck at home today because I'm stuck in an ADD fog. I was supposed to go meet my boyfriend and his friends at a far away concert, but I'm feeling lethargic, listless and anxious--the most I can focus on is a book or TV for a bit, but mostly I just want to sleep. I didn't even go to the gym, which is highly unusual for me. The day before I had a ton of energy, but it was completely undirected and unfocused and I didn't accomplish a whole lot. The worst part about today is...I lied to my boyfriend. I told him I had a fever and a stomach bug. How do people deal with lapses in their meds?! How do you overcome the fogginess and inability to really focus and keep going till you can get a refill?! I just feel awful disappointing someone I love because of my symptoms and even worse for lying. I just feel so embarrassed. I feel like he wouldn't understand and that he'd think I was blowing off something he wanted to share with me. Help!
