Treated For Being Bi-polar For 7 Years----now It's Gone Posted: 01-24-04 19:32pm
Hello,
at first I was being treated as major
depressive. After a few years and what
seemed to be a nervous breakdown, I was
diagnosed as being bi-polar. I was
treated by 4 psychiatrists and 5
psychologists. Major medication to where
all I wanted to do was sleep---all the
time.
This all ended in april of 2003. I have
not been on any medication since that
time. I have no 'crazy' days, I sleep
well at night, I have a brand new job and
i'm doing well.
The only thing that any of us can decide
that helped,,,,was a divorce. Now, the
problem is gone.
Oh well, just think, all the money I spent
on drugs, what a trip to jamaica I could
have had.

Well dear, I am happy to hear that.
However, if you really are bipolar be
prepared. It doesn't ever just go away.
And when getting off of certain
medications you could feel fine for six
months to a year and then have a horrible
relapse. So just be careful, but
hopefully you were just misdiagnosed
because bipolar is nothing to take
lightly. Take care.
