Hi, Nathan,
"As needed" usually means that you don't take it everyday -- you take it when you need it. If you do take it everyday, you start to get used to it.
You do need to talk to the pdoc about this. Find out what he/she thinks "as needed" means.
As for your other meds, how often do you skip? Is it like once a week you miss your morning dose?
It's best to take them at the same time. Like the morning meds are always at 9:00am and the night meds are always at 8:00pm -- or whatever time you and your pdoc work out.
Night meds does not mean any time when it is night.
Does this make sense?
I know you know this already. I'm chiming in here because I think that getting a good schedule might help you feel better. It also might help you feel more in control.
Good luck on your road to wellness to to talking things out with the boyfriend.
