I have a confession to make: Today is one of the only days in a long time that I have not smoked marijuana. I'm sad to say that I went from a "once every few months" smoker to an everyday smoker (I usually wouldn't smoke till the evening when I'd come home from work... not that that makes it ok).
Today's the first day that I'm marijuana-free. As much as I love the stuff and know that I'll probably partake in it from time to time, I have made the decision to stop using because my bipolar has been very unstable lately. After doing some research and also talking to my doctor, I learned that it is not always a good thing especially when mixed with anti-psychotic drugs (like the kind I'm prescribed). Right now all I want is to be mentally stable and I'm willing to do whatever it takes to reach that goal. If it means I gotta quit smoking pot then I've gotta quit.
I'm just wondering if anyone else has had any experience with marijuana and bipolar disorder?
