Excuse her for the day, its just the way the medication makes her.

There is a downside to being heavily medicated.

Wake up every morning, and by ten o' clock, you have taken seven different pills, all there to ensure your happiness and well being.

They are so small in comparison to the rest of your body, and yet they can do so much. Cure headaches, cure stomach aches, cure strep throat, runny noses, restless leg syndrome, insomnia, bipolar disorder, depression, anxiety, anything imaginable.

All in a pill that's smaller than a quarter, a nickel, sometimes even smaller than a bead.

The depressing thing about it all is I know that as soon as I stop taking my medication, I will be in the exact same spot as where I started. Yeah, i'm happy. But am I really happy or is it just the medication? The happiness feels... false in a way. I admit, I like feeling happy way better than feeling depressed. Depression sucks. Mood swings suck. But I wish that I could feel happy without the medications. Everyone else seems to be happy and unmedicated, why can't I be?

But in the meantime, I'll continue taking my medications like a good girl and hope that one day, I won't have to take any medications at all.
