So I am, as my counselor says it, in a manic state. I kind of believe her, but at the same time I want to say screw Bipolar and be free! I have been taking my meds but they don't do anything anymore. I think my body has rejected them. I am also smoking weed (my pdoc knows and doesn't care) to try and combat this mania because it usually calms me down for a week. Now the weed effect only lasts a day and then the mania is back. I am spending money left and right, not sleeping at night etc. and I don't know what to do. I think this mania is going to be a crazzzzzyyyyy ride and I am scared. I know it is going to be huge. What are some things I can do????

If you have a pdoc talk with him/her abt your meds not working. Also if you are manic you might have to go IP and let them stabilize you quicker.

That's what I would do, lock up any means of money, hand my keys over, and find an institutional bed.

I am really trying to stay away from the hospital. I think I can handle it but at the same time I am scared of what I will end up after the mania is gone. My pdoc increased my lithium to see if that will help. I also see my therapist Wednesday and I will tell her about it and see how she wants to do with it. She will probably want to up seeing me until my pdoc sees me again. Hopefully all of this will help keep me out of the hospital.
