Hi Merlin, It was 32 years before I finally found a med cocktail that keeps me stable. In one way, that seems very sad to me; in another way...at least it finally happened! I don't think it takes most people that long, though. I find med poop out (especially AP's) to be a problem. I'm a great believer in therapy - with the right therapist.
Anyway, to answer your question, yes. I get tired of fighting my bipolar disorder. And there have been many times when I wanted to stop trying. I work very consciously not to feel resentful, bitter, angry, etc. Living life with a mental illness is a major commitment.
