Just wondering... I was diagnosed with bipolar 6 years ago after a manic/psychotic episode and then depression. Since then, I'm on meds and haven't had any manic episode at all. Is it possible that the meds help me not to be manic, but they're not helping me with depression? Because I've had many depressive episodes since then, but no mania. Does this still mean that I have bipolar?
I'm currently taking Lamictal and Abilify. I don't want antidepressants anymore, they either have side effects I can't tolerate or they don't work at all.
