:: Mike, I was diagnosed bi-polar about 8 years ago. I have suffered from it since childhood. I would first do a lot of reading up on the subject, and evaluate it against what you are doing in your life. If you believe that you truly do suffer from bi-polar disorder, then by all means, follow up with treatment. Lithium was good for me, but I couldn't tolerate the side effects. I wish you the best in dealing with it. Hang in there, by the Grace of God, we will all make it. If you have any questions about other medications such as, Tegretol, Depakote, Zoloft, Wellbutrin, Ativan, Klonipin, Deseryl, Prozac, Neurontin, Remeron, Paxil, Serzone, etc..., I have been on all of them, and I will try to give you some information on them. Just remember, all medications are different for all people taking them.
