The mixed states are the worst! I have been so lucky that medication has worked within 10 days for me. I hope your meds work for you soon

Just recently I had a mild mixed episode (I think the meds kept a cap on it from getting too bad) and the thing that effectively cured me? Marijuana. My boyfriend suggested it. I had a smoke and the feelings were gone. The mood came back a few days later - smoked again and I have been fine ever since. Now I am not encouraging you to do this by any means, we all react differently. I am just sharing what worked for me.
