I remember when I was in the hospital for physical reasons they would ask what meds I'm allergic to and lamictle and abilify are on that list. Then they say "why were you taking those?" and then I say, "well, I have bipolar." They just look at me and say, "are you on meds now?" No. "Oh, okay, we'll get the social worker up to see you." Never saw a single hair on her head. >.>

Really, even medical professionals don't understand. I just figure no one understands unless they have it.
