Therapy as mood stabilizer? Opinions please.

Posted by Tabitha on June 25, 2003, at 1:52:39

Hi y'all, just wanted to start a topic on whether anyone feels that long-term therapy has allowed them to reduce their meds. My dx is bipolar II, which should mean mood stabiliser plus AD forever, worsening with age. After nearly 10 years therapy I'm getting by with just a fractional dose of AD and no m.s.

My theory, the therapy has finally straightened out some of my distorted thinking that created more mood instability. I'm more resilient to daily setbacks, and don't spiral down so easily.

Or it could be something else. Thoughts?
