About Me
I'm 25, I'm married and I have 2 beautiful girls, one is 9 and the other will be a year in april, they dont live with me but i see them when i am able to since we dont have a car and other issues. I also have a third kid: my bipolar aside from that I have terrible anxiety/OCD/PPD and most likely PTSD from past trauma. I got diagnosed with bipolar 2 with rapid cycling when I was 18 but I am only just coming to terms with it now, kind of late but hey you know how it is. My hubby is incredibly supportive and is my best friend, we make a great team. My hubs is a recovering addict and suffers from depression.

Close Bipolar Disorder
I was diagnosed as having bipolar disorder as well as OCD and Panic disorder. I was diagnosed about 8 yrs ago. I've gone through various treatments and medication regiments, with none of them being the least beneficial to me,only driving me further into my own personal insanity. I feel so alone and I've no support, and don't believe that anyone could possibly understand this hell unless they are living it themselves. Just looking to communicate with people who share my frustrations.
