Answer

Doing exercise (I love yoga), sleeping at least 7 hours a day and taking your meds… if your meds are making you feel worse, you have to talk to your doctor so you can make some adjustments to your dosis or medication.

Answer

Meds. Without my meds I'm 100% sure I'd be dead, either from suicide, or by doing something outrageously stupid while manic.

I have: Bipolar 1 rapid cycling, C-PTSD, generalized anxiety disorder, panic disorder, social anxiety disorder, OCD (it's currently in remission!), seasonal affective disorder, and multiple phobias.
