Yesssss! I’m not on any medication other than a mood stabilizers and a as needed med for panic attacks. I’ve tried a ton more than I could count and I hated how I felt. Now I am not recommending not being on medication but it’s what I chose and it’s hard but it has worked. So far.. I was diagnosed 6 years ago and have had periods of my life that it was awful and I had episodes all the time then I’ll go a couple of months that I am controlling it well. I feel like I should win emmys for how well I “act” normal. I struggle a lot with maintaining the stress of it sometimes. You are not alone in the fight trust me!! It was so hard for me to feel safe enough to open up to my therapist about how I was feeling. I was terrified about how it could affect my life outside her office. It helps me having someone to talk to that believes it’s a illness and understands and helps me look at things differently. It could help but that’s ultimately up to you. I hope it gets easier for you and know you’re not alone..
Thanks for this!
