I haven't noticed a particular increase in accidents or tickets since I was diagnosed. I have noticed an increase in direct proportion to how manic I am verses to how depressed I am. The more Manic or depressed the higher my rates of tickets and accidents. When my meds are stable and I am on the middle road of life I am usually accident and ticket free.
Right now I am manic and my doc is trying to keep me out of the hospital. I have to drive as I live alone and in a very rural area. So, Medicated to the gills I am out there. As little as possible, but I do have to get my meds as they are changing them regularly and I have to get groceries, and go to government offices to take care of business.
So, right now I am just hoping the universe is watching over this fool until I go back to "stable".
Thanks for the Thread.
