As i have only been off the meds properly for just over ten days now its hard for me to gauge what how many times i swing. But I would say a couple of times a week every week I am kinda lucky though as i seem to get more ups then downs. However the dark times can be so bad it actually makes me fearful of being up as it always feels like it takes back twice a bad as it gives. Leaving you to be living with this apprehensive fear of the blues lying in wait for you...
Some people only have a couple of ups and downs a year. Mine are usually only a day at a time though dark periods can last for a few days / sometimes a week though I desperately fight it and try and make myself do things a day or two into it to haul myself kicking and screaming back into the sun.
