I've known bipolar folks who "got off on" stopping their medication, and those muscle relaxants she was using have a street value far beyond the cost to her.
Once we see that bipolar/depression diagnosis, many of us understand what its about ~ either a friend, close relative, neighbor or other acquaintance has educated us.
There are a couple of bipolar posters who earlier picked up on that and gave quite stark personal testimony on the matter.
How did she get the muscle relaxant? Does anyone know what is generally given for a bipolar disorder?
