Not great. Bipolar type 2, and today decided I don't need lithium anymore. I know this is a mistake, but like so many other mistakes I make repeatedly, I feel like a passenger watching my meat robot actively working against my best interests.

Hopefully tomorrow reason will prevail.

Tomorrow has come - is it any better? I hope the meat robot complies today.

I appreciate you asking. No better today, still screaming at myself as I watch myself making this stupid choice.

Taking them out of the bottle, laying them out just like I always do, but when it's time to take.. Straight to the trash. Burying my shame under other things so my partner doesn't see. I know she would be equal parts disappointed and upset with me.

I’m really sorry this is happening. At least know there is zero judgment here, just compassion. Sending you loving energy and hoping you get better soon.
