Last time I went off my medications I attempted suicide but, I went off of them because I was depressed and figured they work working anyway. Which they weren't. I don't think going off medication had much to do with that.
I'm going to be going off my medication again soon too. No doctor just give up on them. I can't stand being hungry but having no desire to eat, being groggy and angry in the mornings, and I'm tired all the time, probably because I'm not able to eat enough and partly because lamotrigine.
Oh and they don't really work that well anyway.
Doctors don't listen and get frustrated when you don't follow their orders or tell them the side effects are intolerable. I'd like to see any one of them stay on meds when they can't enjoy food, sleep properly, wake up rested and have enough energy to do more than lie on the couch watching tv after work and on the weekends. Idiots.
I'm done with medical "professionals".
So is it possible to manage bipolar without meds? It isn't possible to manage it with meds so, there is that.
