Usually, when I skip my meds even for a couple of days, I become manic/hypomanic. But not last time. I moved and filed a change of address form with the USPS but the post office did not deliver my mail for a MONTH, and I receive my meds in the mail. I had to be without meds for a few days, and was COMPLETELY asymptomatic. I was calm, composed, and enlightened. No (hypo)mania.

What was different this time? I used medicinal marijuana for sleep. I suspect that it is anti-manic. I am perfectly happy with my meds now so I am not motivated to go med-free, but this incident gave me an idea: in the unlikely scenario that I would want to get pregnant, I would have a way to be med-free. I have not looked into marijuana's safety for the fetus but assume that it is OK, especially at doses as microscopic as mine.
