Its easy to feel emotionally snowed under and it wind up being med related , I think that is why its so hard for Bipolars to really want to stay med compliant ( been there done that and bought the tshirts)

I will say something you might want to think about ... Sure most meds are " Take daily" but what many people don't really think about is that "most" meds take time to build up in your system so that you get a benefit .. but once your feeling a benefit and spend a lil time and level out well then a possiblity is to space out your meds every other day or more,, It can keep you up enough yet your not snowed under... Most meds have some helfty half lifes. So there is wiggle room.

My pdoc has always been open to my not being a slave to a medication.... I love him for being open !

Just something that you might want to look into
