Is anyone else on here heavily medicated? I have to take 11 pills everyday.

I take quite a few different pills every day as well but not that many....

15 a day plus nutritional supplements! That's down from my highest.. almost won a radio contest when I was on 36 prescription pills a day.

I take 4 different pills a day plus an injection twice a day (I'm a diabetic).

No, but I need to be. J/K

Currently, I'm only on one medication in which I skip kinda often. My goal is to wing myself off of it completely. I've been on it for a while and I'm scared what it might do to me in the long term.

Are you doing this with a doctor's consent/reccomendation? If not I really strongly suggest that you let your doctor know what you're trying to do or it could have serious ramifications.....trust me on this one!!

Used to be on ritalin, switched to cylert. I think I quit around 1994 though. Was for my ADHD.

When I had insurance, I took about 8 pills a day and others on an as needed basis. Now that I have no insurance, I take nothing (but still need it)
