Are there any protocol which can be followed to prevent psychiatric disorder like OCD, Schizophrenia, Bipolar etc. from happening in future in healthy individual ?

My mother has been diagnosed with bipolar disorder in March 2021. Since then we were following a psychiatrist. She has been through multiple manic episode since then. The main problem she is facing is that the medicines prescribed by the dr. Makes her body very stiff, she sleeps all day and night, she blabber, she has headache and even her hands shiver and her feet are  swelling. I know there are side effects of these tablets. But what she is experiencing is hindering her day to day activities. That's the only reason she never agrees to go to the dr. In manic episodes. We compelled her to see a Dr. I just want to know are these side effects normal?? everyone going through bipolar experiences it or do we need to change the dr.? Please help me out with this. Thanks

I am on antidepressant flutop 40 for 20 years and nexito 10, panto d, and modafinil for past one year for OCD, hypersomnia.  My symptoms are hot tongue , feverish feeling (max temp 99.6).like heat emnating from body , Bloating stomach, excessive day time sleep and pains at varying locations in back. I also have  non erosive  gastritis. No appetite. Every item tastes like spicy though  it is not spicy. Morning I get pains from buttocks and half of back pain around spine. But pains will move from one location to other. . Feel comfortable after applying some pressure. No one could diagnose the problem. All bood tests and x- ray tests of back are normal and endoscopy suggested presence of non erosivegastritis. Kindly advise.
