Hey. Sometimes I take my watch off on low days. I have BPD and so I can go thought multiple huge swings in mood within the space of 24 hours and sometimes the electronic reminders are just too damn much. I do like using it to track my mood, though. Helps me get some insight over what caused the rough parts of my day.
Mental health stuff is really hard to guard against on your own. I saw you mention you don't have anyone to connect with right now, and I hope that changes. It's taken me years to get myself regulated to the point where this stuff doesn't just ruin days on days for me. There's a lot of different meds for stuff like this because everyone's brain chemistry is a little different, I take an old tricyclic medication for moods and anxiety management but it took me years (and a lot of suffering) to find it. If you can find the right one, it might help a lot. I'm glad you stopped taking the one that was making changes you didn't like, but hopefully something better is out there for you.
Obviously you don't know me from Adam, but if you want to chat, you can message me. I hope you're managing to keep safe while you come down from your old meds. I'm glad you reached out on here, having people and having community always starts somewhere, even if it's a forum full of Mac nerds. Lots of us have been there are get it.
Take good care, friend.
