My 2 guesses on why it stopped are:

1) I suffered horrible trauma when I lost custody of my son (who was then 3 years old) and I didn't see him for a year. This trauma outweighed whatever else I was going through at the time.

2) I was removed from the area effected by the trigger.

It could be a combination of those two things.

These days I may not have delusions but I have much lower self-care, although not severly bad, my cognitive function is lower for sure but not so far gone that I can still "fake it" to a degree. My episodes of mixed states and cycling in my bipolar is far more sever than it was back then, too. But, I'm resilient and I refuse to give up to these problems. I get that drive from my mom.
