hey,
my friend used to be a regular roller but was diagnosed with bipolar disorder early last year. Obviously he had to stop dropping as anti-psychotics and anti-depressants were used as treatment for several months. It has now been a couple of months since he has had to use medication, and he has been talking about coming back to the scene for a roll. I told him that this could be a very bad idea as it could trigger a relapse of mania or depression. Could someone please give me a more informed opinion about the situation, particularly in terms of the possible consequences. Thanx in advance...
