bipolar disorde
"I was on this medication for 8 years.  They wanted me to get to 1200 mgs, but I couldn't function past 300, so that's where I've been and I take it at night.  I've run out several times and have experienced zero side effects. My sodium gets dangerously low and I have to increase my salt intake.  I thought I was all better and stopped taking it several months ago.  I've been feeling suicidal and have been on manic spending benders and couldn't figure out what was wrong.  Then I realized I shouldn't have taken myself off the medication.  I'm also going to see a psychologist.  I don't like psychiatrists because they always try to pawn off the latest medication marketed to them with perks."
