I started taking meds about 8 years ago for BP1. I was stable for a long on them. About 4 years ago a long line of stressors seems to knock me off course. After an attempt and some physical issue following i was taken off meds for about a month, mainly due to the damage I had done. Oh lord. I was a mess. And trying to find a new set of meds that worked? I was in and out of psychosis, irrational thinking, mixed states….

I'm on a good pair of meds that seem to be be bringing me back around. So, I actually believe in meds. I can't function without them, honestly
