I just moved over to this forum, from the bipolar forum. I have had both diagnoses - PTSD and bipolar. However, I am thinking that PTSD is more of what ails me than the possible bipolar.

I just finished reading the complex PTSD info and know that I need to get some help for all of the trauma that I experienced in my life, especially my childhood, but also as an adult.

I'm medicated out of my mind on anti-psychotics, etc., but am wondering if therapy wouldn't be more helpful to me.

Here is my question: I am new here. Do people think that therapy or meds have been more helpful in helping them with their PTSD? Or do you feel that both are necessary? I'm feeling lost. Thanks for listening.
