I can't imagine where I'd be if I was compliant with the medications prescribed to me.
At one point, I was on lithium, Depakote, zyprexa, citalopram and (something else). Now, I'm on virtually nothing, and surprisingly doing better than before.
I take mini doses of meds, only when needed and then try to get off them ASAP.
I feel that I have gotten better by not being compliant.
Now, I know the scientific / medical community likes compliance. That way the variables are controlled and they can study us - sending us away for 8 weeks of this med and then another 8 weeks of that one.

I don't like that "experiment" process. That's 8 weeks of my life gone.
