bipolar medications
Probably the most utilised category of treatment is medication. This can be any one of the following:
Mood stabilisiers - such as Lithium
Anti convulsants - such as Epilim ( used to treat epiliepsy)
Anti depressants - such as Prozac
Anti psychotics - such as Seroquel
Natural medications - a variety of herbs and supplements have proven effective in the treatment of bipolar disorder.
Usually a combination of different medications is taken to address the different symptoms of the illness, it can take many years to find the right ombination and even then there may need to be ongoing changes made as things in your life change. The use of medications directly addresses the chemical imbalances in the brain and can help manage moods and change a persons behaviour. Most people bipolar notice an initial improvement on medication and if remember to take it regularly it can make a huge difference to their lives. Before making any changes to medications it is always best to do so with your doctors assistance, if your doctor is reluctant to help you, you can always find a doctor who will.
Even though medications are beneficial they are not the only piece of the puzzle, bipolar disorder treatment can take many forms such as lifestyle, environment changes as well as medication. If you can address the other areas of your life impacting your disorder you can be less reliant on medications, if you have been on medication for many years, you may already be stable and doing well and wondering why make changes? However if you are still strggling on medications there is a big incentive to try other things to compliment medication and get better without taking more medications.
There are 2 schools of thought one is take medication, thes other one is don't. I prefer the middle road which is one I wish doctors talked more about, that is taking medication but improving your health in other ways to help you get through the harder times without having to increase medications, because even though the work there are still side effects and long term effects which we need to address. If we can take smaller doses then these issue diminish and we are more in control of our own health.
