I have suffered my whole life with this disease. I have dealt with chronic illness and am used to having to take meds. When I was finally diagnosed last year with BP1 and my meds were changed, I can't believe how much better my life is. I can make productive decisions. I am not knocked over by strong emotions and I can deal with them with perspective. I actually have emotions that make sense.
It took about eight months to get the right cocktail that works for me. But I am so glad I finally have something that works. I am glad I have meds. The thought of living like I was living was horrifying.
I hope you find what works for you and you are able to be healthy and functional.
