So for 6 yrs you've suffered some bipolar symptoms ?
Same Meds the whole time?
I spent 5 ip when I slowly weaned off my Meds last year.
The year before that 2014 I tried to stay out of hospital by going to T every day and Pdoc once per week.
Thanks to the ECT I can not remember what we worked on.
I do have a ton of issues and abuse and trauma.

But when I get back to CA I'm going to TCM and have accupunture.

Ad stability - if meds are contributing to one's instability, they may never be stable enough to go off meds after they been stable on them for sometime.

If DD wants to withdraw slowly, it doesn't seem as rush decision.... and they can always go back on meds if this doesn't work.

I know of plenty people bipolar who go off meds and are fine to this day. Meds contributing to stability means nothing about how they will do when they go off.

Everyone experiences are different therefore comparisons arent helpful. Thanks.

The pdoc prescribes the meds and knows how it effects your entire body. Why not talk with him/her about this. Your T may understand, but cannot determine how harmful dropping the meds can be to your body.

Enough. I'm no longer discussing or reading this. If a mod reads this before I send a PM request please take this thread down. Thank you.
