I posted about how I struggle with medication noncompliance in my bpd Facebook group and someone really had the nerve to say "it's because you don't care about yourself". I'm so exhausted of this happening and this is why I hate opening up especially in that group. Most of the time people are super supportive and give lovely advice but once in a while there's gotta be that one ahole. 😞

      Someone will always chime in, even if they have no idea what they're talking about. Dont let it discourage you.

      I feel where you're coming from. I was severely non compliant with my meds for years and struggled to get into the habit of regularly taking my meds. I still have weeks sometimes where I just get caught up in my life and miss multiple doses. It has nothing to do with how much I care about myself. I have memory issues. I always have. It's part of my bipolar disorder. I have multiple reminders on my phone to remind me to take my meds and I still miss my dose sometimes. You're doing your best, I'm sure. Some people just need to not post every thought that passes through their head. What was said to you was very inconsiderate and insulting. It's great that your open to sharing your story and your experience and I hope that statement didn't change that for you. I wish you the best on your journey.😁

      sometimes people say things because they simply have nothing better to do and while it's not okay, it still happens.
