Bipolar: One or the other. Resistance to treatment is not that common, mostly relating to non-compliance with treatment, at least in my experience.

Tapering meds.: Difficult question to respond to online, not knowing what the medication dosage is, or what other meds. U are taking, what has been tried before, and your general health. It is best to sit down with a psychiatrist & review all those issues.
