 Yes, I’m not on any medication any longer. I am also not having therapy any longer.

When I say this, I don’t say it lightly. I worked my butt off to get where I am currently. Some people do need both or either or.  Sometimes it’s just how it has to be. But I worked hard to get off of both, and here’s my experience.

-Regularly do things you enjoy doing. (I enjoy art, and nature. Singing, and creating jewelry for people.)

-Have open communication with both your counselor/therapist and Psychiatrist. (Them knowing you’re progress and how you TRULY feel is key.)

-Learn healthy coping mechanisms. (When I have a PTSD episode, I go outside and breath. If I can’t do that I draw.)
