No, James, when I wake up I know I am bipolar. When I wake up, I run to take Levoxyl, a synthetic thyroid hormone that I have to take to counteract Lithium's effects on my thyroid gland. Levoxyl has to be taken at least half and hour, better an hour, before breakfast, so I run for it. So the very first thing I encounter each morning is: I am bipolar and need meds for side effects of my bipolar meds. So there is no escaping for me.
