That's serious...something is wrong with you and you must be babied and have a caregiver and if you decide to go unmedicated?!!! End of world.
Bahaha I love the "caregiver" thing, it's all over the Internet hey? The other term I like is "manage". Naturally I opened and read the psychiatrist and GP referral to the psychologist... "please see attached referral for treatment and management of this young woman". Pschhhh just you guys try to "manage" me haha. Until the day someone turns up at my house at three am and takes bipolar away from me, I'm pretty sure I manage me. I'm not even that young.

A caregiver would be awesome though. I wonder if they would make me a sandwich?
Thanks for this!
