I’m happy for you, I’ve been off meds for a year now and actually have been better.

Glad you’ve been better, I’d take caution, but you know your body. Can I ask if you’re bipolar type 1 or 2?

That’s what I thought. Only people I’ve known to make it unmedicated were all type 2. I’m type 1 and I can’t go through psychosis again

Yeah 1 makes it harder to be unmediated, I just can’t go back on meds it made the depressive episodes longer and worse.

Yup, life of bipolar is choosing between the lesser of two evils, all the time. Stay strong 💪
