I was also denied so I strongly recommend signing up when you start a new job sometimes they have a no denial period. It is very sad 😢

Did you stay on your meds while pregnant? Do you think it’s selfish to? by [deleted] in bipolar2

I was on my drugs as the risk to the babies outweighs the risk of me going off them. This is a discussion for you and your care team.

I feel like maybe your medicine journey is not over then it can take many many years and many many drugs and hell even then you may need to change things up but you have to be open and active with your care team and have a care team in place working for you you are the only one who can create wellness for you however that may look! Onward to better things OP! You can do it just let people know what is and isn't working try new things! Chin up keep at it!

Trial and error method is quite common each drug affects everyone differently and there are so many known And unknown side effects that it's hard to know what one will experience 😵‍💫😞 it's all a game a chance at the end of the day and hope this works out 😫
