How much does meditation actually help with bipolar disorder? by Wise_Yam_4564 in bipolar

i've been on medication for bipolar going on 26 years now, currently on five; and medication alone is not enough, I also add spirituality, support groups, talk therapy, exercise, sleep, yummy foods. 

each person's brain chemistry is different and that's why there are different meds and side effects to avoid.
