MDJunction to me

jaguarandcubs"MDJ is an integral part of my everyday life. Since joining in 2010, I have met so many amazing people. It is truly incredible to be able to share good times and not so good times with others who face the same health challenges. And MDJ has support groups for every condition I have. I don't know of anywhere else that can offer that. I love that I can learn from others as well as offer my own experiences for others to learn from." (jaguarandcubs)

Hi - follow-up to my last post... from what I've seen and read, he can't stay up (even though he, and he's got a lawyer who believes he's not) much longer... he was going manic since Nov, had a psychotic break in January, and has been on a tear since - spending, talking, up all hours, says he's on meds (but again, not enough or at the right time or being metabolized quickly) - I get calls from friends that he's not OK and he's yelled at our tenants, my parents, me...all my fault (yet doesn't blame me...right!). I'm just wondering if - regardless of what meds may be sustaining the high - if he has to eventually crash as he always has. Thanks for any insight.
