Hello..... Thanks for your query. Treatment for bipolar psychosis should take precedence over dissociative disorder in your case. The treatment for bipolar disorder ncludes mood stabilisers like lithium, valproate as well as antipsychotics with mood stabilising properties like risperidone. Hence, you discuss these options with your psychiatrist. Maintaining a normal sleep-wake cycle as well as avoiding use of alcohol/other substances of abuse is likely to benefit you. Wish you speedy recovery.RegardsDr Sundar GPsychiatrist
