My insurance canceled the Pdoc I was seeing. He gave me extra refills and said how to reduce them if they didn't find anyone else. I stopped AD years before that and those were harder to stop than the mood stabilizers. I subbed omega 3, a good vitamin, volunteering and healthy eating and did fairly well until this last year, after my back surgery I just could keep anything in place, started eating processed food, stopped the omega, stopped yoga, isolated and now I'm back on meds. The doc I saw was hopeful that the anti psychic will only be temporary.
Just so you know I have BP 2 and that might be ok for less meds I don't know, I think it's really individual. My daughter is BP I and needs her meds to be stable, so we are all different.
