''We know that antipsychotics shrink the brain in a dose-dependent manner (4) and benzodiazepines, antidepressants and ADHD drugs also seem to cause permanent brain damage (5).Sep 9, 2014"

I know that I am not as sharp as i used to be. now i am 77 and had a stroke. I have been on klonopin for so many years. I have read that lithium is only good for bipolar 1. A jerk put me on it even though i am bipolar 2 and all it did was made me gain a lot of weight too. Risperdal really helped but I can't rembember why I was taken off.
STRESS-the enemy
is there a way you can eliminate as much stress as possible. My sleeping is so bad but if you can sleep better that would be great.
My anxiety is awful but I have read that meditation is fantastic. my mind races too much so i have yet been able to relax enough to do it.
what other medications have you tried?
