Mine were all medication induced. There were years where I was so over medicated that I had regular black outs and would get picked up regularly by the police and taken to a hospital for walking around in my night clothes San shoes with no Id. Why it took so long for me to catch on to that fact I don’t know but during those years I was also diagnosed with dissociation and DID. Never had it, was over medicated and I took my meds as ordered without question. I don’t believe it’s a bipolar thing, it’s a psychological result of western medicine.
