Once again, I applaud you and everyone else who is dealing with any of these horrible diseases. Acceptance has got to be a very difficult thing to do.
I am on lithium. If I miss a dose or two, I get manic or dysregulated moods. I've tried depakote and four antipsychotics and quit all because of side effects. The lithium I like.

BP1 has mania and psychosis but BP2 does not.
