Today I am changing.

I have felt terrible since February. Today I am taking back my life. I am done with trying all kinds of psychiatric meds that make me feel worse. I am going to try a more natural route with supplements (with my drs guidance) and therapy. I am going to get up and exercise, clean my house and take care of me. I have no other choice. My family needs me. I have to kick this rabbit hole i find myself in. I want to be a present person and enjoying life. I dont want to be anxious and scared all the time. I have to take back my brain and my life.

Therapy yes, supplements if you have deficiencies is also good. Nothing wrong with taking meds if you find one that’s helpful either. Lifestyle choices/changes are a great idea, best of luck to you:)
