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.
my brother is bipolar type 1. now he's had it for 10 years and his illness is out of control. before his illness he was a good kid. i lost him to this consuming illness. its like he's there but still not there. he's still a good brother but i miss the old days when we were kids. he's a great guy and if he didnt had this illness he could have been so much more. the doctor's have put him on strong doses of sedatives to keep him calm and help him sleep but its not working, i can see it in his eyes how he is suffering and i cant do anything to help him. he used to be a nice kid, always took care of me. he was the kind of guy who puts other first always compassionate and just a good person. and now he's lost and he tries to fight it but he cant get out of it.

Once again I've had a fever today. I'm not going to the hospital because that's a huge waste of time but I did schedule a dr appointment for Wednesday afternoon.
There's a good support board on DS for 'Friends and Family of Bipolar' that you might find helpful for you
