Coping with mental health medication.

Whenever I was admitted in hospital for mental health, like I was 7 times, the nurses gave us medication with dinner at 6:00 PM.  I did not have trouble waking up early in the morning.  After the hospital, I would take my medication at 9:00 PM or thereabouts.  I don't know why.

I have never thought of going back to hospital pill time and I have to because my class this semester starts at 10:00 AM, meaning I have to be up before then.  I don't want to wake up and rush out the door.  I would like to do certain chores, have coffee and wake up slowly.  This is the main reason I started taking the meds early today.

When I told my beloved husband about what my intentions were, he agreed with me and told me to reduce by an hour each day.  So today I took them at 8:00 PM, tomorrow 7:00 PM and Tuesday, I will be at 6:00 PM and stick to that time.

So help me God.
