So glad your tdoc is helpful @bipolarbunny and you're exercising regularly and keeping fit. That helps a lot. I've found in the past that gardening and walking are good, I even had a gym membership for a while and need to start moving more again. Increasing meds is a judgement call, I hope it works well for you. I'm also only on antipsychs for the bd atm and titrated down a little because of side effects.
Ģardening was soothing and grounding til neighbours mowed down my flowers which was very upsetting. There's not as much birdlife either since local redevelopments. Ì did some cbt goal setting a while back and I'm not ambitious, but having a walking or gardening buddy would be nice. If I were a computer I'd use the reset button and start again with a book club or piano lessons.
Good luck @bipolarbunny it sounds as though you're going well.
Dimity.
