My son is bipolar, diagnosed several months ago. His insurance refuses to pay anything on mental for a year so I am paying for his meds and therapy! ( I find it ridiculous that the heart or liver can malfunction but not the brain!). Just had to vent a bit there but on with my question: How serious is this money thing with BPs? I transfer $ to his account to pay his medical bills; this last time he chose to get the mood stabilizer but not the antidepresssant - he goes off the antidepressant cold turkey and then complains of dizziness, headaches, etc!!! I just want to shake some sense into him that he can't go off and on that way without messing things up. I also read about the roommate who spends all his money and doesn't have rent money - Is this thing with money totally beyond a BPs control? I need some advice from people who better understand how bipolar affects thinking and logic...........
