Is it better to sometimes forget about your illness?

I honestly don't really feel the need of telling people about my diagnosis. Even though it's serious like as long as i take the meds and all and try to be stable see the doctor if need be. But i also try to put it behind me and just live.

I think meds gave me permanent tremors

I'd like to clarify that this is not only bipolar meds since i used to have seizures too,and my neurologist had to look for a combo that might treat my bipolar and also the seizures. On completion of my dosage(a year) i stopped taking them but i started getting tremors that would worsen during my depressive episodes...so fhey gave new set of meds that did the same for the seizures but this time for the tremors and also for bipolar depression.

I tend to stop my medication immediately i start feeling better because AEDs are not good for long term use... but the tremors are still here but very mild...only gets worse when I'm triggered but it has been over a year since i took them and i think that's enough time for the reversibility of meds-induced tremors. I feel my bipolar meds have also played a part in this sinve those were the last meds i took...

Does anyone also have med-induced tremors and how did you treat it if use to have it.

Like sometimes i am just in a good mood and now i think that it could be mania,i think it's really frustrating cause sometimes i just wabt to live without feeling like things could flip at any given moment.
