I think it is someone's personal choice to go all natural or take meds. I tried to not medication for a while and it didn't work out for me. My both meds are actually used to treat seizures and the FDA hasn't labelled them as bipolar/PTSD medication. There's little to no side effects too. If your wife only uses natural products to treat her bipolar and ptsd thats great! Even on meds I still have cycles its just more controlled now. I don't think people realize how intense BD actually is. I believe there's more bad than good therapists and psychiatrists . Most go by the book instead of looking at the patient as an individual. I had a therapist once tell me when I think negative thoughts just picture a stop sign and tell myself STOP. what kind of BS advice is that?! That's not a coping skill. I'm still upset about that. When I told her she wasn't a good therapist and was biased with her clients (I was in a hospital program at the time) she said she felt "attacked". Ugh I'm still really upset about that. Sorry I had to go off for a minute there. Unfortunately I know if I stopped taking my meds I would go into psychosis again. It's kind of upsetting though because when I'm off my meds for a day or two I feel more connected with the energies that surround me and I feel stable but just free? But after a week it's just not good. Sometimes I feel like there's something inside me that takes over me. Yeah I know I'm mentally ill but I just feel like I turn into such a different person I don't know what I'm doing it's like I don't know who's there. But then I think is this my stable self actually me or is my unstable self the person I truly am?

Yes I agree the government is horrible and I definitely believe there is a cure for cancer but they just want money. Everything that's government regulated is corrupt and goes in so much deeper it hurts my head. Sadly the pharmaceutical industry is extremely corrupt and they only want money.
Sorry for going off I feel very strongly about this. I don't mean to offend you if you feel attacked on your beliefs. I do support your lifestyle and wish your wife the best forever. She's a very strong person.

Yeah definitely not saying I know how to manage your body just adding my experiences. What works for one person might not work for another and vice versa.
 
A word of warning here. I think we’re getting into tabo territory discussing medication and treatments. We can not speculate or make medical recommendations.

opps sorry! got off topic there! Right before I found this site I posted a reddit story about a very very weird experience. I don't know if any of you have reddit so I'll just summarize it since it's very long.

Basically I call it the "sock monster". This was back when my family and I were still living in our old house. One day my sister couldn't sleep so my mom and I slept on the floor. I woke up and it was very early in the morning. I tried to fall back asleep but I couldn't. I turned over away from my mom's back and opened my eyes. Then right in front of my face the "sock monster" in the shape of a gingerbread man, all gray, standing up straight, like 1 foot tall, and just kinda waving its body slightly back and forth. Right away I shut my eyes and screamed. My mom looked around and there was nothing around our futon like a sock or stuffed animal. I remember this morning perfectly. . I tried to look up the characteristics of the monster but found nothing. It had no face. Someone on reddit said it could of been a mushi? I have no clue. But i know what I saw. It's still in my mind. After that I never saw it again.

The shadow people I saw where always individuals like.. one would be a business man and another would be an old man. Maybe I was making up who they were to feel more comfortable?

Sorry for replying so late.

It could be something supernatural, but this could also be just seeing things as you fall asleep. Do you believe what you saw may have had some significant symbolism that made sense to you?
