Tough choices

I've mentioned before that my medication has ballooned my weight.  So frustrated about the situation a month ago I made the rash decision to come off medication without supervision.

The first week I was on a high - I was in control of my life, weight, destiny etc.

The second week I had headaches, my stomach felt awful.

Week three chest pains had returned, tooth ache too from clenching my jaw so tightly.  Complete and utter lack of concentration (I have a very short attention span at the best of times).  Tiredness and crying, lots of crying.

So week four - my decision, I need to take my medication.

I've always had body issues, contortioning myself away from mirrors and photos.  I caught a glimpse of myself in a shop window the other day then quickly scurried past.  What do I do?  As the saying goes "fat and sane or skinny and insane".  It's a tough choice.
