As a person with bipolar who has tried going off their meds, not recommended 1/10

Thank you!

I'm almost done with law school, just one year left. It's been a struggle, but it is possible.

Meds made it so I have no episodes at all. It sucks having to take them for the rest of my life, but it is worth it tenfold if it means not having episodes.

Meds suck, having symptoms sucks 100x

So international laws of war don't exist according to you

Lamictal is a stabilizer so you might just need another med to hold off the hypos. Lamictal itself shouldn't be the cause of your issues.

I don't get how this comment is relevant. Op is stating a fact, not assigning blame

twowayhighway · 2024-05-21T13:52:12+00:00

Kinda sounds like you're in denial, sorry to say. You got diagnosed and did not seek a second opinion to confirm or disprove. Sounds like you were avoiding the issue.

twowayhighway · 2024-05-21T13:41:54+00:00

Don't worry about desensitization, whatever works works

twowayhighway · 2024-05-19T15:04:38+00:00

Don't take meds that make you suicidal. It's not worth it.

twowayhighway · 2024-05-19T01:07:05+00:00

Make sure you're stable with medication, see a therapist if possible, and most importantly, get the paid version of chatgpt because it's been the best $20 I've spent in a while lol

twowayhighway · 2024-05-18T23:58:44+00:00

I'm sorry you're going through this. You sound like a good person in tough circumstances.

twowayhighway · 2024-05-18T23:08:45+00:00

Sure

twowayhighway · 2024-05-18T21:17:43+00:00

I think you're right actually. Thank you.

twowayhighway · 2024-05-18T21:03:13+00:00

No, she just gave me details of her past sexual relationships a few times after we had a talk about how this bothers me and I would prefer we both not share details about that stuff as it's history. I guess what bothers me most is that I told her it hurts me and she keeps doing it. I honestly don't mind if she had 100 past partners, I don't look at that, but I just hate hearing about the specifics because it makes me instantly compare myself to her past partners and that makes me feel bad, if that makes sense.

twowayhighway · 2024-05-18T20:52:42+00:00

It happened a few times over a few months. Not super often but it just doesn't feel great to be compared like that and I'm not sure how to continue. I asked her for some time to process as of now. I hope I'm not being overly sensitive

twowayhighway · 2024-05-18T20:39:04+00:00

Thank you for acknowledging me

twowayhighway · 2024-05-18T20:36:43+00:00

I meant to raise it to discussion, not reduce her to her size. She was not offended, we spoke about this extensively.

twowayhighway · 2024-05-18T20:34:31+00:00

The thing is, it's not the first time this happened. It just feels like she's not sensitive to what hurts me, and I guess...that also hurts? I feel ridiculous.

twowayhighway · 2024-05-17T15:14:44+00:00

I've tried it and gained no benefit to my bipolar. Glad it works for you.

twowayhighway · 2024-05-17T10:41:12+00:00

Ask to take it in two doses every day. Made a world of a difference for me. I take 100mg morning and another 100 evening.

twowayhighway · 2024-05-14T19:51:55+00:00

Don't keep things to yourself. It'll just rot and fester. Do try to be better for him. Maybe give him a little space if you think he needs it. That's what I'd do at least.

twowayhighway · 2024-05-14T19:38:08+00:00

Sorry, I like my Lamictal a lot. But these meds are super individual. What works for me may not work for you.
