I have just be diagnosed for the 4th or 5th time as bipolar type 2. The first time I was diagnosed with it I was 12, I am now 23. I took medications from the ages of 12-18, but as soon as I turned 18 and had a choice, I chose to not accept or believe the fact and stopped taking anything. I've been struggling a lot in the past 5 years and just recently decided to accept the fact and I started meds again. I'm reading a lot about alternative theories and alternatives to medicine and its all really interesting. I just want to start a discussion with a group about it. I hope to get many replies. much love, camila
