to get up on here - but to be honest I'd rather just give directions & hope for anyone with severe mental health that it is possible not only to recover from, often chronic, lingering, lifelong SMH conditions but also recovery from medications that can leave so many struggling & feeling impaired.

Peter Smith at Balancing Brain Chemistry Naturally was one of my most useful & thorough resource websites back when I was in the depth of post Bipolar 1 'High' brain damage.
It seems obvious to me now, looking back that deep depression causes brain damage, call it 'brain changes' if that's easier, & so does hyper-mania & more especially proper full blown mania. The mental disorganisation is hard to describe but it is utterly crippling. The sense of being oneself as one knew oneself to be gets completely annihilated. Feeling permanently befuddled or confused was my lot for much of the last 35 years & not knowing why I felt like that because I didn't have a diagnosis.
Anyway Peter was brilliant.
