I'm gonna start a my first fulltime office job (in person) that's 8-5 later this month, but my unmedicated dumbass just realized I won't have consistent time off now when the psychiatrist's office is open. I've been unmedicated ever since last year, when I accepted that I am not just only depressed lol and Zoloft sent me into a hypomaniac state :(. Since then, I've been busy with finishing school, paying off my credit card debt and trying to get a fulltime job. Also I have a huge fear and terrible past experiences with doctors, but this job's insurance plan will help me a lot..


Do y'all have any tips to working a 9-5 (im type II) while going to monthly psychiatrist appointments? Do y'all just take the day off or have telephone appointments? I am also so so scared that being on the wrong medication again will make me hallucinate while driving or send me into a deeper hypomania. I appreciate any advice 🙏
