Research that I have come across points to the possibility of meds reversing the "damage" that BP can do to the brain. I imagine there are also other ways too. So I think what you are saying is true. Damagd to the brain due to BP can be reversed.

as for meds. There is recent article on PC about how benzos are linked to Alzheimers (so much for how they need to be part of your "rest of life" coctail if you suffer anxiety. APs can cause brain atrophy on top of other things.
Not saying don't take them, but really to sell them as "neuroprotective" as I seen some people do......... hard to believe that.
Plus, how many brains for unmedicated, but aware (hence not self-medicating and badly living) bipolars they scanned to be able to say BP damages the brain? I really don't think you can claim bipolar itself is some brain corrosion agent. Choices made due to bipolar... yes... but the condition itself? We don't know.
Imho, the kindling theory is just pushed by Pharma a lot and doesn't have that much of merit.
