I don't drink alcohol or use any illegal drugs except weed and I'd like to be free of the need for it and not use it every day. Taking a break for a few months is what I am aiming for.

I might have learned somethings in therapy to help but nothing is coming up. I'll ask my psychiatrist about it. Do you have any suggestions?

Yes and yes.

My pdoc is not sure if I have bipolar 1 with psychosis or schizoaffective. He also thinks I have generalized anxiety disorder. Anxiety is often co-morbid with bipolar. You have a good point though.
