Go get help and start on your meds.
Can you take pre- natel pills while on bipolar and anxiety meds?
I would think so. I did (while on bipolar and anxiety meds) with no side effects. Prenatal pills are vitamins and shouldn't have any effect on your other meds. However, I would consult your doctor or pharmicist to make sure. They can also tell you at what times (taking) your meds will be most effective for you.

If you can control your Bipolar Disorder with the medications, chances are that you can stay in the Navy. However, if your Bipolar Disorder becomes uncontrollable, then there is a possible chance that you cannot be in the navy. There isn't much that can be said because it all depends on how well you can control the Bipolar Disorder with your medications.
My son is bipolar and refuses medication. Is there something I can be doing when he has his mood swings Do I keep helping him or tell him to get out.?
My daughter is bipolar also although she is on meds now. Before meds, when she had a mood swing, all I could do was just ride them out. She tended to mimic others behavior (if I yelled, she yelled). I just tried to be as calm and even as I could and she would soon swing back. Please do not tell him to get out as he will probably not seek the help he needs. Keep trying to get him on his meds. I know this is hard but my daughter finally decided that the mood swings were worse than the meds. If he has bad side effects on the meds he is on, talk to his doctor about changing them.
