Are you Bipolar?

RSS FeedIf you are then this post might be a help to you. Since you cannot treat bipolar disorder on your own, there are some things you can do:
1. Take presecribed medications. Even if you are feeling well, take your medications. If you stop it, it may trigger a new episode.
2. Pay attention to warning signs. Call your doctor if you think you’re about to have an episode. Have family and friends look for signs.
3. Avoid recreational drugs and alcohol. Both can trigger episodes and should be avoided.
4. Check with your doctor before taking other drugs or herbs. Sometimes other medications can trigger episodes or may interact with drugs you are taking for the illness.
