Self Help Programs?

I'm a 20 F with Bi-polar 2, i've been on medication lately and i hated it. I'd always be tired no matter how much i slept. I Felt like a zombie at work and just felt more depressed than before so I stopped taking them a few days ago. Cilift (for the depression) Topamax(for the mood stabilizing). So now I want my life back and wanna try to do the whole self help thing, does anyone know of a site that has Bi-polar 2 self-help programs. Like nutritional things to eat and stay away from, exercises to do, chemicals to avoid that might be triggers. Things like that. I am seeing a therapist, but she's all talk and not great with setting up a program and clearly telling me how to handle all this.
