I completely agree with Minnehaha's 5 tips. I've been coping for 7 years and come to the same conclusions. Don't feel bab about leaving school. I had to leave as well. It was one of the toughest things I had to do because school was so important to me. I realized, though, my health was the most important. I spent the time off getting mentally healthy again. From time to time I still have falls, but I put all of my energy towards getting better during those falls. I eventually went back to school and finished, so it can be done. Do what's good for you, though. Ask yourself "is this good for my mental health?" If the answer is no or not at this time, stop and do what is right for your mental health. A good start can be talking to a therapist. I know changing and looking for meds is a real pain in the a*@. I still have to make adjustments. Just keep in mind meds help you become level so you can work on the illnes. Don't ever think they are a cure. I got into that tangle. Think of them as assistance. Keep at it. There will be good days.
