Bipolar Disorder Support Group
Bipolar disorder is not just a single disorder, but a category of mood disorders marked by periods of abnormally high energy and euphoria, often accompanied by bouts of clinical depression. This is the place to talk about your experience with bipolar disorder, learn from others' experiences, and find support.

There are many in this group, and in Real Life I know 5 or 6 - so you are NOT ALONE!!!!
It does major damage to our thoughts and soul changes everything, the way we feel and see....
Glad you found us, I hope you find the support you need and deserve! There are great people here, friends to be made... not a lot of members come up top to the sub categories... maybe introduce yourself on the main board "General Discussion"
As Gina wrote that there are many people here who have suffered since childhood
There is a group here for post traumatic stress disorder that might be a good support for you... I'll put up a link
