I've had had my first major down since i got the right meds and was on track. For a good 6 mnths ive been a completely different person and living life not swinging all over the place. But i forgot my pills for a couple of days and came crashing down. Just looking for advice or any words. I forgot what this felt like.

Anytime that happens it can be scary no matter how many times it has. Take your pills again as usual and in a few days you will be back to where you were. You could be down for a bit because of it but it shouldn't be long. I am bipolar so I know how fun it is for all of us. Good luck and I hope you can get back to your "Normal" I say your Normal cause it is differant for everyone. Take it easy if you can.

You had the depressive episode most likely because you missed your meds those few days. The meds have to be taken every day because they are in your blood (every drop) and have to be maintained at a certain level by taking them again the next day. If you miss a few days the blood level concentration of the meds begin to drop lower that what it would have been had you stayed on the meds. Stay on the meds and take them every day as prescribed or your likely to become depressed and or manic.
