Boy, you really needed to let that out! I'm glad you got to vent. Don't be afraid to become dependent on meds for bipolar. Your body chemistry has something missing, and you need to replace it. Find the right combination of meds, though - that's the key. The wrong ones will mess you up worse. Then, once you find the right stuff, stick with it and be afraid to be without them, and watch your emotions become strong enough to handle life and all the garbage it throws you. Trust me. Been there. Done that. Good luck, and congratulations on being a grandma!!
