On the road (psngr) but i must say im not brainwashed and i get my meds for free so im not really a customer. I've taken every program on mind over matter out there. The chemical imbalance still exists even though i know and do all the "right things". It's cruel to say anyone can heal their illness alone. Would anyone expect that of a diabetic? Its manageable but our brains in scans and waves look much diff than normal people's. This is not something that goes into remission for long. No one here enjoys being sick and once on the right med combo we can function. As for pharm cos I dont like them and know they overcharge and have side effects galore but until gene therapy can fix bipolar meds are it, along w/T & exercise.
