What kind of doc takes someone with bipolar off meds? It seems to me that the docs are always stressing that you need to stay on your meds. The doc may change the dosage or the type of med if you are having side effects or it is not giving you good results, but I've never really heard of a reputable psychiatrist or mental health specialist not having someone who is truly bipolar on meds (& usually in some kind of therapy, as well).

I'd see another pdoc rather than have the symptoms return.--Suzy
