“antidepressants” are often contraindicated in bipolar because they are ineffective and/or tend to trigger mania or hypomania?

I was on another forum where someone kept saying he has bipolar and how his doctor was increasing his “antidepressant” again
please forgive my ignorance . The doctors in my forest tell me nothing or lie to me

Personally I’ve been allergic to nearly all the psych meds I have tried. I was once accused of that being unlikely by some know it all. Thud (nobody here) .. why would I make that up? jeeze. I’ve been told by at least one doctor I am the most allergic “patient” they have ever had. I am also not as patient - or gullible? as some seem In this forest since I know every time they IRL try to feed me with lies and bs (RAIN3)

If I saw a medic now I shudder to think what new labels they would give me maybe some “accurate” and some not GRRRRR (THUD)

My “stuff” is all mixed up and intertwined. I hate labels as I find them confining and they have been used against me IRL (GRRRRR face)

(please I request no posts about the current “situation” in the world since this is one of my triggers I could delete this freakin post but maybe I am as deserving of support as anyone else That is not what They IRL say . And no I have never killed anyone or even hurt anyone :-(

I have a new supply of benzos. And another med that does nothing. I tried seroquel. It caused weight gain and when I increased the dose a scary allergic rash. The side effects of these meds freak me out .. particularly the rash And something else I will not speak of.... the rash sounds trivial to some (I know different..)

I was just thinking that I kinda get why some therapist irl found me frustrating as I was so untrusting ... I did not trust him not to hurt me (and I was not mistaken )

Someone in another group said I was either “scared and suspicious” or “aggressive and sullen”.. idk.. maybe. I wonder what that person was (dunno) Perfect, I guesss...........



Sorry about the whine. :-(
