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.

When John's case manager did his, Three Times It Had To Go Back cause of stupid things so asking for help i A Good Thing and I feel sure that many people ask for help!!
You Go Girl :)
