For me, the past 3 weeks have been bad. I come here, read the posts, respond to some posts, and I feel a little better while being on here. Hang in there dude. That up swing is coming.

I'm not trying to be patronizing to you because of your age as I counsel adolescents. Remember you are also dealing with growth spurts and hormones complicating your bipolar. I hope you have a good pdoc that is well-versed in adolescent psychiatry. Stick around for a while, let us help see you through it.

The thing I'd do is not base my moods on other people's words, thoughts, feelings...
Enjoy who you are for all the glorious things you are about. Find your good points and dwell on those forever. :D
hugs,

I thought I was "better" a couple of years ago. I stopped going to Dr appts and stopped all meds. (besides I couldn't afford them any more). I just had a MAJOR breakdown and my dr put me back on meds. When your up...go out, have fun, be "normal", but when you need us, we're here. If you don't need us, you might feel good being there for those who where there for you. (I feel better when I feel like I make a difference.) Good luck no matter what you decide.

    I have been here before, a long long time ago and now I am back.Forgive me for not just saying what I want to say,even under a triple dose of antidepressants it is still raw and seeping and I am hesitant at revealing it as at least under the bandages around my heart I don,t have to look at how raw and wounded.My child was cleaved from my heart by his own actions. my child of ten,turning eleven...
