Narcissist Behavior Q&A
๐ They keep me from sleeping or from taking my medication
Blocking your sleep, medication, or medical care is abuse that damages your health. Your physical health comes before everything.
The short answer
Blocking sleep, medication, or medical care is not a squabble over lifestyle habits.
When this happens, try this
- If stopping your medication abruptly worries you, talk first with the doctor who prescribed it.
- Keep your medication and medical records somewhere safe they can't reach. If emergency symptoms appear, call 911 immediately.
Scenes like this
- They kept the lights on demanding answers all night, keeping you from sleep.
- They threw out your psychiatric medication as "unnecessary" or canceled your appointments.
How to tell the difference
They can voice an opinion about your health. They may not throw away your medication or block your care and run your body down.
