I certainly understand feeling “called” and though I do not suffer from bipolar disorder I do think there are aspects of a spiritual dis-ease that we share. For me medications have not worked and though I do not recommend anyone go off medication without consulting with their doctor and careful consideration, I have found other things helpful. Things where I am actively creating tend to work for me. Things like art, music, journalling and even my banter with the voices can be considered creation and shamanizing. I also have the support of my family and this is very important.
I wish you the very best and much peace.
