It's hard for me to assess your situation without more information. For example, when were you diagnosed and are you on medication? Are you in therapy?
Hi Beth. I was diagnosed roughly 10 years ago, BP1. Should have been diagnosed at 18 but that’s a story. I’ve been on a million medications and they all either stop working or are intolerable. Right now it’s 200 lamictal, 800 carbamazepine, 3mg cogentin, xanax as needed, 100mg of seroquel when I need to sleep, but that’s a 24 hour commitment. No therapy; I’m not a fan. I’ve been taking Xanax since I was 25. I’m 42, male.
Thanks for this!
