Re: Dealing WIth Someone Mentally Unhealthy

[childings.livejournal.com]

Uh, bipolar people can have manic episodes even when they take their meds.

Medication isn't fucking magic you know

I agree that the person that anon is talking about sounds like they aren't trying hard enough, but fuck, I'll admit, I've stopped taking my meds before because of the side effects (YOU try taking lithium and see how you fucking like it).

And even when I'm on them stuff like hormonal changes or alcohol and shit that barely affects a healthy person's moods REALLY fucks with mine.

So yeah, have some god damn empathy

Uh, if alcohol affects you negatively with your meds, don't drink? That is something you can control.

sorry for jumping out of nowhere

but

if you need lithium

eat dates

they have shitload of it for such a little fruit

and because you're getting it through food your body absorbs it easier

I think apples, tomatoes, cherries, strawberries and onions have some of it, but way less than dates

I hope you are not advocating someone stop taking prescribed medication in favor of eating fruit.

Re: Dealing WIth Someone Mentally Unhealthy

no, sorry it came across that way

it was a suggestion to follow if they could not or would not take the medication at all because of the side effects

if they can find meds that don't cause the side effects that made them decide to quit it, that's even better

but finding the right medication takes time, and in the mean time they could try to see if getting it through regular food might help

the frame of mind i followed was "it's better than nothing", with the added incentive of not having the nasty side effects to convince them to try it (assuming they're not allergic or something)

Sorry if you think having empathy and having limits to how much a single person can take until their own self-defense mechanism kicks in are mutually exclusive.

It's what sympathy can turn into if you've had someone leeching off you emotionally in a one-sided friendship for ages.
