Bipolar Medication- Taking A Day Off to Rock Out




I wasn't playing music as much as I want to so i decided to stop taking my medication for a day so I can rock out today. I had a nice practice session. I'm still skeptical about this myth that you have to take your meds every singe day, period. I really enjoy playing when i'm not taking my meds, but when i'm on my meds it feels kind of like a chore. Music is probably whats most important to me so I just can't see how I can take my meds every day. My meds allow me to work, which is good, but the website is pretty much done and i kind of want to be a rock star.
Maybe we can just take our meds during the week and have the weekend off to be our rambunctious (sp?) bipolar selves. Most people drink and get high on the weekend to escape, but we can get high all by ourselves...when we're not on our meds. Just a thought.
Maybe when I get my own house i'll have bipolar parties ("Mentally Ill Saturdays") where we can not take our meds that day and all act crazy together....I have a dream.
Hope you're doing well.
