About Me
Hi everyone! My name is Melanie and I am looking for friends that understand bipolar disorder. I started feeling "different" at the age of 12 and started researching bipolar disorder at the age of 16 when I cleaned out a bank account due to being manic. I wasn't diagnosed until this May at the age of 26 after going through a divorce of only 1 yr of marriage to an abusive man. It doesn't help either that I've had to file bankruptcy, have diabetes, PCOS, OCD, and CSP. I would say that I would rather have highs than lows but I think I'm truly at more risk of something bad happening when I'm on a high rather than a low. On my highs I drive reckless, write hot cks, and anything else that comes to mind. On lows I cry alot, hear suicidal thoughts and get very very depressed where I don't even speak sometimes.
