Husband, T and I want to try no meds at first and see how I get on. I haven´t ruled them out I just want to try and manage this first before starting on any meds. I want to see what symptoms of my BP I cannot control or manage and maybe then look to medicate but that is just my choice of path I´m choosing to take.

I think the idea of having someone else tell you how you manage your BP is a great idea, family member or friends, as I often have no idea I´m manic even if someone tells me I am! I need to look to hubby for confirmation that I´m "ok" tho. Sometimes I think I´ve been really good and normal and sensible all week and he tells a totally different story of a crazy-lady!

Good luck and hope you find the combination of meds / therapy that helps you xxx
