AAA Reader Question

Submitted on 2014/02/27 at 5:57 pm

Dear Julie I am confused. You said ” I love writing the column and am very proud of my work. I didn’t miss a deadline for over five years. Then, as my bipolar disorder got really bad a few years ago and I had to go back on meds, I found myself getting behind with my writing. ”

Julie, are you saying that I can look forward to going off of my meds? One of the hardest parts of accepting my diagnosis is that I have a future of continually changing medicines. Can we actually manage our illnesses such that we can go off meds?

It would be a lot easier to accept this if I thought there might be some good news here. Thanks very much.

Susan
