I will go with 3-6, with the 6 being infrequent when I have a delusion or take a deep dive into depression. I get pretty slammed at the low end sometimes, but I fear death more than despair and have never been suicidal. That fear is not always healthy; when an additional test is indicated but it is still highly unlikely anything bad is wrong, I am a mess until it comes back. Anyway, I wouldn't go above 6 since I haven't posed a danger to myself or others in several years, and when I did it was manic risk taking.

The DBSA support group I attend has opened my eyes to how good I have it compared to a lot of others.
