Rough patch.....

Right now, I am going through one of the most trying and toughest times of my life....personally (within my marriage), at work, and within myself. I doing what I need to do such as seeing my doctor, taking my meds, and going through therapy, but it is still hard. My body cannot tolerate many bipolar drugs (mood stabilizers) and antidepressants. I have suffered numerous side effects such as having a sezure, hair loss, weight gain, and toxic lithium levels that had thrown my thyroid out of whack. I am no longer on any of those medications, and after 5 years of frustration, I will be seeing a new psychiatrist. If anyone out there can give a few words of encouragement or advice, it would be greatly appreciated.
