I have no health insurance and cannot afford to go to a doctor to get prescriptions but am getting into a serious depression. Is there any herbal pill I could take until I can get some insurance? Looked into the Nature Made "Mood Plus" but it says not to take it if bipolar. Please help.
Vitamins and Herbs
"I do not recommend these in lieu of medication. Bipolar disorder is a medical disorder requiring a lifetime of medication. Many people literally gamble with their lives by thinking that vitamins, herbs and nutritional supplements can be taken *instead of* medication. This attitude opens one up to episodes of mania and depression."
That is from a wonderful self-care website that offers ways to maintain your Bipolar Disorder. I encourage you to check it out. I wish you well…
