I think it is true. I tried to have my doctor prescribe antidepressants and he said that I was not depressed all the time and that it was situational. He said that I needed to work on coping techniques. So writing more. Working out my thoughts more. Avoiding those who stress me out.
I think its true because my doctor prescribed me prozac when i was very depressed really helped but over time i swiched to mania to be honest i LOVED to be manic but my doctor explained to me that mania is toxic for your brain. hope this answer is helpful.
I love to be manic too but it is toxic. So thank you for explaining. I've been taking mood stabilizer. I want to ask my doctor for topamax because it helps with weight loss and helps bipolar type. But my doctor thinks it's too many meds. He is a good doctor who listens.
