Welcome to PsychCentral!
I used to be on lithium but the side-effects did not work out for me. I remember goung though $100K very quickly. I now have about $15K in debt that is just killing me financialy. I am on disability. I also was imitialy diagnosed with depression amd treated with tricyclics (sp) which is what only was availaboe at the time. Many years kater, in my 40s, I was disgnosed with Bipolar II. This explained allot. I hope you manage to post here from time to time. I will look forward to this. Oh yes, look into debt forgivrness with a bankruptcy attorney. This is mot as extreme with advantages over bankruptcy. I now pay $600 a month on debt with income that is not much over twice than that to pay the bills.
