The thing is, bipolar can involve a lot of SI and there is a real risk (statistics are sobering). I would pick a different forum for this discussion.

Allow me to respond now that you’ve apologized.
As you know I am not a “visitor from the ptsd forum” but in fact am and have been dual dx. I wasn’t expecting this much resistance in the bp community. Where did I not say I wasn’t under a dr’s permission or without a dr’s consent?
A little bit of support or encouragement would be nice. Y’all aren’t making this any easier for me. I have a hard enough time accepting my bp dx as it is. Not getting support for my decisions with my dr from the bp community isn’t exactly helping, you know what I’m saying?
Perhaps I should edit the topic but I can’t, so, if y’all could just read and reread the part about under a dr’s supervision and with a dr’s permission I’d be much obliged. Thx.
