I’ve found as a young-adult diagnosed person, it heavily affects my social functioning to the extent i dont use it on social occasions and successfully get by with the systems i setup to support myself generally and it covers times i dont use meds.
Id never not want to have access to my my meds but im genuinely curious if i will find the same need for them in my later years
Oh it absolutely affects my ability to socialize; I know exactly what you mean. Lowering the dosage helped with that, but there are still scenarios where a break is advisable - I just make sure I’m not driving or cooking that day lol.
Its crazy nobody recognizes that, its really such a tension for me 😩 I and other people enjoy my non-medicated personality so much so its easier but its definitely a conflict to actualy being productive and taking care of biz-shit
