Hello Doctor,
My wife is a bipolar depression patient since last 2 yrs. Since last 6 months she refused to take tablets and went out of control. After consulting the psychiatrist who had treated her we admitted my wife in the hospital. Now she is discharged and under medication. With this illness she has lost interest in normal life be it grooming & educating the kids, doing routine family activities, reduced affection, love against spouse & kids. How to bring her back to normal life. Does she need to continue the medication for a longer period? If yes, how long it could be?
