Also wanted to add, our daughter was diagnosed with bipolar when she was 15. We went through a lot with her, including having to switch drs. to keep with a dr on our med plan only to have that dr stop the drugs the previous dr had her on. Why did he do that? Because he didn't see any sign of bipolar, well the )*(Q&%# didn't see any signs of bipolar because the depakote had stabilized her! Then we couldn't get her stabilized the 2nd time around, not unusual we discovered.
Drugs are good, when used properly. Unfortunately there is too much 'practicing' done by those who practice medicine.
