Bio
Hello :) I am a singer and songwriter. I think all song writers are poets in a way because they’re both expressing what’s hard to say in a way that’s easier to explain, it that makes sense. If you’re just passing through, take a look<3

When I Stopped Taking My Medication
I have two medicines I take every morning—one for ADHD and another for other psychological problems (Anxiety, bipolar type II, etc.) Prescription drugs or any drug for that matter are never something you should stop taking without permission from your psychiatrist—or in this case, without admission to the psychiatric hospital. There has been a problem with the pharmacy involving my second medication which is an antipsychotic drug so, I have currently been off of it for over a week now. Coming off of antipsychotics suddenly like that can cause problems like a relapse of psychotic symptoms or the development of Tardive psychosis. I had an incident yesterday that I DID NOT START. Although, my mouth escalated to the point that there could’ve been a fight and I could’ve went to jail for murder if I wasn’t calmed down. As the people involved talked over each other to me, I was in a battle with my mind. I couldn’t speak, I couldn’t breathe. I just saw me with my hands around someone’s neck. It got so intense to the point where I was shaking and on the verge of an attack.
