Touching on medication As previously mentioned, not everyone has to go on medication but…

If you have a mood disorder that is making your life out of control 

The right medication with the right management can help you feel more in control & help you fly straight.

There are different medications for different types of mood disorders. If you do need medication, it’s important that you & your doctor find the right one that best fits your symptoms, condition & biological make-up.

And sometimes the side effects of medication can arrive before the benefits, so it’s important to hang in there before you can start to feel better. If you have concerns, discuss them with your doctor.
