Absolutely. I often ask my psychiatrist if I am really bipolar. He always says that I am the bipolar poster child. It is at these times that I convince myself that I am not bipolar and decide to go off my meds. Always a bad mistake, as I start feeling the edges of being unwell and sooner or later decide to start taking them again. I've just come off a two-week period when I didn't take my meds, because I didn't believe I was bipolar, and I have had a lot of anxiety and some hypomania. So back on the lithium, Abilify, and Lamictal for me. After a period of stability you just have to take it for granted that you are BP and have to take your meds. It's a good problem to have.
Thanks for this!
