How To Treat Bipolar Without Drugs

Do you know someone who has bipolar disorder? Perhaps it is someone you know that is very close to you like a friend, relative, child, or it might even be yourself. Bipolar disorder is a very serious mental illness that affects the lives of the people who have it, as well as the lives of the people who love them.

There are three basic types of bipolar disorder. The first type is called bipolar I disorder. This particular form of the disorder causes the individual to bounce back and forth between high levels of mania and depression. The symptoms of depression can last for days, weeks, and even months at a time. With this form of bipolar disorder, there will also be periods when everything is fine.

Honestly, I am unsure if my diagnosis is correct. I do not have a lot of faith in my psychiatrist for my own reasons. In one 20 minute meeting he diagnosed me with biploar disorder, dissociative disorder and borderline personlaity disorder followed my a heavy regime of drugs. This was 2 years ago. I have sinse left his practice and only stayed on one medication that my general doctor perscribed (Risperdal). I am unsure as to my true disgnosis or if I am truely ill or not? I am staying on the Risperdal because I feel like it does help stabilize my mood, however, this could all be in my head too. I would like to discontinue the Risperdal because of the joint and muscle aches that I get from it. I have also gained 25 lbs on this drug. Any suggestion on that I should do? Do I look for another psychiatrist? Should I attempt a “talk therapist,” should I discontinue the drug on my own? I’m open to opinions. Thanks!

I am considerating getting some illegal drugs to help with this crazy felling. I have read and studied anything and everything I can to help myself with this. I can’t live like this . Anyone else feel this way? My family don’t care, doctors dismiss you in a hurry. What does everyone else do? I forgot what quality in life is.

drugs, why not feel good while your here?

suffer from depression, bipolar, anxiety, drugs help and make me feel normal why be sober ?

I hate any kind of mind altering drug legal or not. They have these bad side effects and my husband is not serving God anymore since he has been on these “mood stabilizers”. They have changed him into something else. I believe God has natural cures for bipolar such as fish oil and most important prayer and following God. Is there any Bible verses I can show him that will speak against mind altering drugs? Thanks in advance.. I hate these drugs and hate their side effects and think they should be ILLEGAL!! :(

accupuncture/pressure, magnets, etc.
Clarification: I am NOT going off my current meds; I have been medicated for years and just want to believe there is something out there that works better–as I can tell you first hand, my illness has been largely treatment-resistant. And while they’re generally thought to be safe, I do have to have my liver checked with my current bipolar med.

I was recentl;y diagnosed as bipolar II syndrome but most of the drugs they prescribe make you gain weight, is there another way I can regulate my moods with foods and herbals?

I’m on pills and have no interest in collecting opinions or theories.
