The lack of med compliance is concerning.

If managing when/if you take them is difficult, I suggest having your pharmacy blister pack them. I do. That way, if I can't remember if I took them or not it is plainly obvious to me. I also leave myself several notes as reminders.

Gosh, I really enjoyed being hypo/manic but the crashes and fall-out were devastating. As much as I miss the episodes I can't afford - literally financially - to go to that place again.
