My meds

My meds

I hate taking my meds stupid pills
several just to wake up and a handful later
Just to chill
This couldn't be my life you've got to be kidding me
This is for real, a handful at every meal
Everyday my mental illness needs to be fed
And no one will truly ever know what its like till 
they find themselves waking up dead
My bipolar has caused so much pain so I try to 
abstain from substances that contain chemicals that will further destroy my heart and brain
I let my illicit drug use become a habit 
instead of taking my meds
I turned into an addict

I use to take a lot of pills, I got hooked on codine when I was young, battling through depression that still rares its ugly head even now, i don't know how you feel, being prescribed all those meds, it must be hard to rely on meds to keep you " acceptable to society". Take care, keep writing, it helps.
