For years I tried alternative therapies for my bipolar disorder. Nothing worked. A year ago I started taking medication and it isn't working at all. It is so frustrating. I have a beautiful daughter. She is six years old. i want to give my best to her but I am such a mess. My bipolar disorder has gotten much worse in the last three years. The mood swings are more extreme. I become completely catatonic during my depressions. I am searching for new things to try. I am going to be hospitalized soon for blood tests and to have my medications adjusted. I hope this works,
