Yeah I benefit a lot from my mental health medication. I would never want to miss them. It is simply another life quality. It is still pretty low but without it my life was so insane. Quite literally. I was often quite paranoid and partly delusional. I thought literally 24/7 about suicide for 1,5 years or something. I fear this time will come back if I make mistakes. Or maybe that is just the natural cycle of my bipolar disorder.
I was at my dentist some months ago. Before that I postponed it way too long. I felt extremely bad mentally and I always used this as an excuse. I had 3 holes in my teeth. He could repair them. I am very cautious with my teeth since then. I brush them for quite a while maybe a little bit too long.
But they feel weird again. Not sure if a hole is back. If so I was really confused. I care for them a lot. But I had a theory maybe my medication is responsible for that. And yes I made a research my medication is known for fucking up teeth. Especially the amitriptyline. It causes a severe dryness in my mouth. I take it before I go to sleep. Seemingly this is pretty bad for dental care.
I am a little bit desperate. I am dependent on the medication to stay stable and somewhat functional. I have bought me something against mouth dryness. Not sure whether it really works. And it might be expensive. (My mom bought it.)
Anyone here who can relate? (I rather doubt it)
