Hey all,

BP2 here, so I've been on Lamictal for sometime but an insurance issue came up that caused me to miss my dose for almost two days (was resolved by the night of the second day) and essentially I was not even close to on top of my shit. 

I work as a PM in private on-site construction work, and I just barely functioned, I managed the site in a daze, forgot to clean up, felt completely overwhelmed and stressed the whole time, couldn't think straight, I just kind of scraped by as best I could but felt so completely useless. I couldn't remember anything that the client needed or requested. I could barely manage to read or process the spreadsheets we had set up to track progress and it felt like my brain was running at a 1000 miles per hour and yet at a snails pace.

Effectively I left the site in a pretty bad state for the next PM who was going to work there the next week, and the client was dissatisfied with cleanliness and adherence to certain rules in order to not damage walls and paint. 

I feel really really bad because I put the other PM in a bad position and it does not make us look good for the client, I had a call with them and they were rightfully frustrated with the state of things on-site.

I don't really want to come up with an excuse because I'm back on my meds again and feeling much much better, but I also feel like it's the only real justification I have because I **don't** operate in that manner normally and feel frustrated that without medication I'm effectively a totally different, much lower functioning person. I know that this little blip will come back in conversation, most likely as a "What happened?", and I'm not exactly sure how to express it adequately without admitting to the medication aspect.

TL;DR
Didn't take medication for almost two days while I worked on-site, I functioned very poorly and left things in a bad way on-site which has affected another PM negatively, I know this conversation will come up but I don't know whether to/how to justify myself without explaining the serious withdrawl effects I was experiencing that weekend.

Thank you for any and all support, people!
