I've been diagnosed bipolar in January 2009 after experiecing manic state. I was cured with lithium but i was not feeling well with it, i had tremors even if no overdose. So i reduced my dosis by myself telling to my doctor that i feel better that way. That was in august same year! In september it started again with hyperthymia, what was feeling great and ended up with another manic state. I did quit my job and went to Paris with very few money, without saying to anyone! I was lucky and had a great time, excally. I had running thoughts and kind of movie in my head but i still managed to act normal (a bit euphoric). Anyway, in November i ended up in hospital again and started to take haldoldepo. First month i was taking abilify as well.And just like that- no more movies in my head! Now i'm taking 025mg haldol depo every 45 days and i'm doing good. But i feel ready to stop taking it! My doctor means i shouldn't. I think that i managed some things that were a big problems in my life and maybe a cause of all that happened and that's why i think that i can make it without medications. I must also mention that i'm naturaly bright person and never had any depression. Can i make it without drugs??? I feel like i can! What do you think?
