I have been on psych meds since I was 29 ( i am now 48) and have been on just about every one of them out there. I used to quit my meds on a regular basis only to end up in the hospital far worse than I was before stopping. I tried to self medicate and it didn't work either. My brother who is also Bipolar refused meds for the past probably 8 years as he didn't want to lose his "creative side". He is now back on meds and seeing a therapist and is so much better. I will gladly take my 3 med cocktail til the day I die .. I like being in control of my life and actually living instead of existing.
((((hugs))))
