You shouldn't be zombiefied when you're taking those kinds of tablets. Any doctor worth his wage would pick up on it and change them to something that doesn't zap all your energy (different meds effect different people in different ways). Although saying that it is good that you seem happy without them I hope you never need to go back on them. Good luck for the future :)

Theyre not anti depressants they are mood stabilisers(im bi polar).Kinda keep you level.Being level is really poo,im going to see if I can manage the ups and downs myself without being sectioned!Sick of being on medication .. it has been years now.If it doesnt work ill admit defeat and get back on the zombie pills.

You're right zombie pills are definitely better than being sectioned-I have a few mates who are bi-polar on mood stabilizers (Lithium,Deprakote, Olanzapine) they mix them with alcohol but I've never seen them go manic or zombiefied thank goodness and if they did they would tell their psychiatrist so and get them changed.

As you say if you're sick of meds I completely understand that but if my mates stopped taking their meds I know they would go manic and get sectioned so I genuinely hope that doesn't happen to you. Be extremely careful-I sincerely hope it works out for you :)

I realized this morning that I'll be flying in to Tampa probably around the same time as all the Republicans coming to town for the Republican National Convention. :rolleyes:

Interesting. I, too, am Bi-Polar. Although, I don't take anything for it. Hell, I don't know how anybody hasn't been able to tell. I guess because I keep myself secluded.

back in my day nobody was "bi-polar" or had "a.d.d."...they were just fucking nuts


and the term "politically correct" didn't exist

You can definitely be medication free while bipolar depending on what type of bipolar disorder you have. If you're the type who ascends mania into some type of psychosis then you should definitely still be taking medications. No medication, whether it be an anti-depressant or mood stabilizer should make you feel like a zombie and if that's the case, your psychiatrist needs to work with you on finding a medication that works with you, not against you.

Knowing your triggers, patterns (if you have them), times of day/night when you're more manic or depressed, how you react to your mood fluctuations (alcohol, painting, exercise, screaming, etc), etc will help you to get a handle on your bipolar disorder while being medication free. Learning good coping skills is essential, and having a daily routine also helps. Another very important thing is to have a good safety net of friends and family who are supportive and patient; anyone who isn't those things, you should probably remove them from your life.

I honestly hope that you can do this because while medication is great for some people, it's not appropriate for everyone and being medication-free is so much less of a hassle sometimes. However, if you do need medication, there's absolutely nothing wrong with that at all and it shows a lot of strength to admit that you need help and are willing to accept it. Also, I'm not a doctor or a licensed practitioner of any sort.
