When I started going to the psych a few months ago I was started out on three medications, taking four pills a day. Now I'm on five different medications, taking eight pills a day. Every time I go in it seems like she gives me something new to counteract some side effect or to supplement existing medication and I really getting sick of it. I don't want to stop taking my meds, but I don't want to continue on this never-ending path of pills she's got me on. I go to therapy once a week, I don't succumb to any bad influences or behavior that may trigger an episode, and I pretty much stay on the right track. I've been doing those things since I was on my initial scripts and was doing well. Now I just feel like I'm going to go crazy from all the crazy pills I have to take. Is all this really nesscary to maintain my bipolar? What can I say to her to make it stop prescribing me all this medication? Someone give me some options here, because I am all out of 'em...
