If you are bipolar rehab is going to work !The way the ten steps work is great for most people but not for the mentally ill infact I seen it make it worst for me and others I knew with bipolar .Well most people do the ten steps and slowly get better we get much worst which leads most people there to think we are still using .But in fact we are having to deal with are bipolar with out the help of drugs or drink .Plus most meds. take 6-8 weeks to start working and can take years to find the combo that work for you .

You need to work on your bipolar first or goto rehab that deals with both But they are getting hard to find there no money in dealing with the long term mentally ill so they been losing funding . I can tell you with me and other friends I made if you can get your bipolar under control stopping drugs and drink is the easy part .Meds don't work if you are using and once you get taste of sanity you wont want to risk the trip to hell again !
