My wife of 10yrs has stopped her medication, partially because she went to a naturalpath (sp??) and was told that after "cleansing" she would only need to take the natural blah blah stuff and partially because she didn't like the way it made her feel. I think it really changed her and put her on an even keel, so to speak. She has been BP since I have known her but I only recently found out "what" is wrong. Now, she wants a divorce too, which is typical of her when she is in a deep down cycle, she actually carried out part of the plan once and moved out for 5 months. I have always told her that if that (leaving/divorce) makes her happy then feel free, because I love her and want her to be happy. She is really hard to live with when she is in the down cycle, I am the cause for all the worlds problems, wears a guy down after a while...
I am learning as much as I can about Bipolar disorder and have recently learned (today) that I have NOT been doing the right things, and feel horrible about it. I feel like I may have actually made it worse.
The thing that gets me is someone who is not qualified to perscribe meds took her off of a perscribed medication..........
