Hi,

It's amazing you have been able to get through negative self talk for a few days, however, with Bipolar you have to be very careful. Let me ask you this since you stated you have been off medications. How come you came off them? Where you ok on them? or did you swing off because of the side effects?

I have been on meds for 15 years and have made great progress over the years. I am calculating progress based on how I was when I first got diagnosed to how I am now. To be honest I rather stay on the medication because NO need to stop the momentum if I feel great right now. However,

With bipolar you have to be careful because it's something which can only be stabilized and from my experienced NOT cured. Another thing is maybe meds helped you handle situations better. How will your mood be if you encounter a problem in life and your NOT on meds?

It's a very sensitive line which you have to be careful about especially as it relates to mental health.

Hope to hear back so we can chat some more.
