Yet another Bipolar Question...?!
Question: Yet another Bipolar Question!.!.!.!?
So with being bipolar there is either a MANIC side or a DEPRESSED side!? Is there EVER an in between!? Do the meds make it "balanced" (as much as possible) or is it straight up one or the other!?Www@Answer-Health@Com
Answers:
You can be depressed, manic, hypomanic (subthreshhold manic), mixed (hypo/manic and depressed), or normal!. Some ppl go years between episodes!. Some ppl rapid cycle having episodes daily, weekly, monthly, or at least four times a year!. Without meds, I'd cycle weekly now!. With meds, there's only a minor fluctuation hardly anyone notices and those who do pretty much chalk up to normal mood variation!. As someone else also indicated, I too work closely with my psychiatrist to keep things level!.

Hi, yes there are in between states when your mood can be stable within the "normal" range!. For some people this is achieved with drugs (but drugs do not work for everybody), for others this balance can be achieved without taking medication!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
