Medication Compliance

A friend recently told me she was going off her meds and plans to combat this life-changing disorder with holistic healing. Bipolar Disorder is not something to be solved with herbs and alternative medicine. It is a ticket into Mania and/or Depression. Maybe one day there will be a solution that incorporates both Psych Meds and Herbal solutions, but the time hasn't come yet. I am very interested in finding the mix of things that keep you on the lowest dose of medication while offering other options like holistic supplements and yoga. In the meantime, be med compliant. The alternative is dangerous and puts you and your family at risk.
