I'm bipolar and haven't been taking my meds: Lithium. The problem is, I have a TERRIBLE toothache and other parts of my body are hurting. My mom and aunt were discussing that someone with lithium can't take pain killers while they still take that med, so I stopped. What would you choose: physical pain or emotional pain? I chose to stop the physical. Anyways, I have been having nasty mood swings that piss the rest of my family off. I don't physically hurt anyone, but I am pretty cocky and I protest a lot. I yell a lot and I make nasty remarks to people. I burst into tears and I'm also very irritable (can't be around others sometimes).I should take my meds, but I feel like I can't. I'm in soo much pain and no one can do anything cause 1) I have braces and they need to take them off and 2) we don't have that $ right now, apparently. And so, my mom decided that she might send me to a mental facility, if my therapist and psychiatrist give her the ok.
What do you think we should do?
