in this list that cancerian27 posted.... 2. Can it be cured? There is no absolute cure for bipolar illness. Most sufferers, however, can remain relatively symptom free if they comply rigidly with their medical regime, receive competent, ongoing psychotherapy by a therapist who understands the depth issues of the disorder, and adjust their lifestyle (e.g. absolutely no alcohol or non-prescription drugs). non prescription?! huh the prescription drugs are more dangerous than the alcohol..well, at least just as bad |
