My roommates stole my medication, so I swapped them out with laxatives.

Here's what happened.

So when I was 15, I was diagnosed with bipolar schizophrenia.

Now, despite what TV shows and movies may portray, not all people who suffer from schizophrenia

or serial killers.

If you can keep your medication in balance, you can live a perfectly normal life.

In the age of 15 to 20 was rather hard as we tried to find the right balance of medication

for me, but it had been 11 years since I was first diagnosed and has been 6 years since

I've had any really bad symptoms.

There's been a few minor issues when my meds would go out of balance, but nothing extreme.

Anyway, this happened three years ago.

I had just moved into a new apartment with two new roommates.

We'll call them Zach and Rachel.

Anyways, due to my illness, I take multiple medications, an anti-psychotic, antidepressants,

and a variety of anti-anxiety medication to name a few.

These are all rather strong medications.

So when I moved in and got settled in, I started to notice some of my meds started going

missing.

I have my pills counted out and ready, so I know exactly how many I have.

I immediately suspect my roommates as they were the only ones with access to my room.

I also knew for a fact they took other medication to get high.
