They can sometimes: They are usually implemented with the intention of having someone be more capable of completing activities of daily living or being stable to the point of facilitating occupational pursuits although sometimes medication regimens can go awry. I would discuss any concerns you have with the prescribing physician if you feel there are still barriers to you being who you want to be! stay safe!

Depends: It is not clear as to what is the nature of your mental health issues. If you have any, please make sure to stay in touch with your doctor and follow the advice about psychotherapy and medication. Medications do help.
