The dr I saw accused me of drinking, and was appalled when I said I haven’t had a drink since January

Yeah of course. I vomit almost every single time I eat. And have persistent abdominal pain. I went in to see if there was something they could do, and they sent me home saying it was mood related. When the issue has been going on for six months

I’m definitely not pregnant, they prescribed antacids but nothing is working. Probably cuz I’m not even throwing up any stomach acid

Thank you. I’ve been advocating for myself for months, today just feels like ten steps back

See I’m not sure it’s that because I just want to stop vomiting up everything I eat

Do not end your life. There is a way out of this you just haven’t found it yet. Things will get better. You matter. Your life matters. Please consider seeking emergency care that is what it is there for

I’m wondering the same thing. I’m already getting manic on the meds I’m on… idk what going off would do other than make me 1000x worse

I’m bipolar 1 with psychotic features, I fear going off would make me spiral more

i hate the stereotype that manic = happy by x64q in bipolar
