Hello and good afternoon.

Thank you for your question.

Based on your question, I understand that you are worried about your situation. I will try to help you.

For your information, mental disorders such as bipolar disorder are complex health problems. The diagnosis of the disease can only be given by a psychiatrist who will conduct a detailed examination of the patient before drawing any conclusions or providing treatment.

Therefore I highly recommend you speak to your psychiatrist regarding your situation to provide you with the safest and best route of care to manage your condition as a whole. You can contact our doctor online for further information and treatment.

I hope this answer helps you. Thank you.
