Please Help...I'm,"Bi-Polar", and blond! someone who knows, or is, do you take meds, do they help?

Question:

If you are and do not want to answer in the public forum, e-mail me please.
I have ,"self medicated", with pot for years...but I have had to ,"GIVE it UP", for recent employment opportunities.
YEAH WHATEVER, it also, (pot that is) when I run out, I just seemed to get more ,"DEPRESSED".
Thereoretically if I just never ran out, things would be fine.
But I will not take the risk of selling it ,just so I can have ,"My FREE STASH". And weed is expensive, and SUPPOSEDLY causes other problems, what with work, family, G.F., whatever.
And then...
See I am Bi-Polar.
I hate to admit it, especially to myself.
I can not stay on,"ONE TRAIN OF THOUGHT" for like even one minute.
But I do not want to do or take any meds, cause I have heard too many "horror stories" about people acting out their ,"angers", or whatever.
You know, like setting their house on fire, maybe cause of too much MED'S, or like , "going out and killing someone who they think really needs it, when they quit med..

Answers:
It is bad idea to self medicate. I did it with alcohol and it got me into more troubles.

You need to read up more on the illness coz obviously you have some serious misconceptions about being on meds.

Are you seeing a psychiatrist at the moment? I think you are confused. Were you diagnosed BP by a qualified psychiatrist or did you self-diagnosed? BP has a whole spectrum and which category do you belong to? Cyclothymia? BP I? BP II?

You will act out your anger if you're not on meds rather than the other way round.

Trust me, with this condition, self-medication is a bad idea.

You may wanna send me an email if you wanna talk more about it.

Cheers

Gin, and lots of it
