less medication

[shakalover]

have you found that since becoming raw, you take less medication (specifically less psychiatric medication)?

one result that i'm hoping for from becoming raw is having nutrients that nourish my body, thereby making it possible for me to take less meds (right now i take about four or five different ones). in some ways i kind of see them as poisons in my body, although they do help, and i'd love to be able to take less or even not take any.

what has been your experience?

shakalover,

that is something that seems to ring true around here.....others lessening meds or coming off of them.

Myself, I have never been a med person but this year, I have been on anxiety,anti-depressants and sleeping pills. the last few days being 100% raw, I have not been used them. I struggled b/c my body was in a "tug of war" situation but I managed to get thru last night...I almost wanted to burst into a state of panic adn freak out....I really was ready to call 911 but I kept drinking water last nite and I feel different today....got small things done that i haven't in the last 3 weeks since terminating my psych treatment....considering I have only slept,woke up,short walk, cry most of the day and slept in the last 3 weeks :)
