You are aiming for: With bipolar you are aiming for as close to "normal" as possible. When medications are balanced your life will feel closer to "normal." psychotherapy will help you learn to cope with life stressers better, too. When the meds keep you balance, you can function better and take advantage of therapy better. The illness does not go away, but you can learn to manage it better.
