I don't think people will be judged as everyone is ALWAYS so kind here. I'd approve it! Sending many safe, warm hugs to BOTH you, @BirdDancer, your Family, your Friends, EVERYONE HERE and ALL of your Loved Ones! Keep fighting and keep rocking NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENS, OK?!
Thanks for your kind input on this, MickeyCheeky.

You make a very good point about consequences of going off bipolar medications. Then there are the added issues of going off of bipolar medications cold turkey, or going off one medication but not another, etc. The latter, especially, is quite a unique issue for bipolar disorder. If it is ever the case that such a "Bipolar medication discontinuations" subforum is created, what you mentioned sounds like great sticky material. Our current "Bipolar Treatments" subforum already has a very useful sticky created by bluebicyle. Thanks, bluebicycle!
