Should I drink less alcohol if I have bipolar disorder?

Alcohol can interfere with your sleep and your mood. Minimizing your alcohol intake will reduce its impact on your mood and sleep. If you're having trouble with the amount of alcohol you drink, talk to your mental health provider to see if you have an addiction problem, which is not uncommon among people living with bipolar disorder.

Some people use alcohol to calm their mania, or self-medicate, which is never a good idea and should be discussed with your mental health provider. Too much alcohol also interferes with bipolar medication, because many medications interact negatively with alcohol. Having one or two drinks early in the evening, at least an hour before taking your medications, should minimize the impact of alcohol on the effectiveness on your medications and probably won't interfere with your sleep.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
