I'm bi-polar 1. I recently started taking Depakote. Up until a year ago I was addicted to marijuana. In the last year however, I learned to smoke occasionally (at parties, socially). I like to reward myself by allowing a small amount of marijuana use. I'm very careful of myself not to get out of control. Dependance sucks. However it has always been something I truly enjoy. Getting to my point, I just got prescribed this drug. I have no problem giving the weed a break for a while, but eventually I'm gonna want to smoke again. I'm just wondering what might happen. Anyones experiences? I know I'd be better off if I just quit all together, but I'm 21 years old. it's not happening. So am I gonna flip out and start killing people, or will it just be a typical pills and weed experience? (I used to *love* ativan and marijuana, but those days have long since past)
Any help would be appreciated. By the way, yeah I talk a lot. I just got put on pills, I'm still manic......what can you do. haha.

I've never been on drugs but I think I would have if given the opportunity to, but I've also been recently diagnosed(was on Depakote for awhile) and done alot of reading on bipolar stuff, and I can tell you that drugs and alcohol make it worse and harder to cope with the disease.
