Hi, thanks for doing this! I go to UBC and have just recently realised I need therapy because right now I'm only on medication. I was wondering, where would be a good place to look for one? I can't afford much at all being an out of province student at and live quite far away from campus. I'm worried about having a bad experience with another one and walking away again like I did in my hometown but I know I need the help. I know UBC has resources for this but I've heard many bad stories about it, especially with wait times. Would you suggest looking anywhere else or know of a good place/person to look into?

Thank you! Hopefully more research is done on it in relation to BD.

Are there any other medications for BD (say something like lamotrigine) that may also do the same as lithium or is lithium the only one that is known to be neuroprotective?
