3. Try to ween yourself off of drugs, like if you wake up one day and don't feel crappy, don't take a pill. But if you do it, do slowly, just try to break the habit of taking a pill everytime you feel a little bad. There's no need to shock yourself when you're feeling fragile, slow and steady.

This is extremely dangerous advice. An individual who is Bipolar should not be advised to skip a medication dose, or worse, begin weaning himself off medication without a physician's input.

P.S. I will be editing out the above paragraph from your otherwise thoughtful post after I give those who've already read your post a chance to read my reply here.

i'm not going to quit the lamictal

lamotrigine + cold turkey = grand mal, not to mention the mixed crying/laughing/screaming fits that will ensue

although i will attempt to stop using the adderall as a quick-fix [img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img]

what limit/level do you play chesspain?

i know alot of general information about my meds and my condition and how it technically affects me (adderall + wikipedia = knowledge explosion)
