I have Bipolar and am in grad school and want to do my final project on Bipolar and was hoping some of you could help me...I need to explain how the existing programs for available with people Bipolar are not enough and more needs to be done. What do you find is not out there to help us? I want to make a difference one day as a counselor and this is a good way to start. Hearing from the people like myself of the struggles in getting help. I think something I have noticed as there isn't a lot of help for people who are Bipolar who get suicidal. It is a high symptom of Bipolar yet no one talks about it. Even my counselor never really mentioned it. What else do you think folks?

I think you have to get permission from DS to ask people on here to participate... I think... I'll ask one of the other CL's

I have no problem with helping out if I can though....Jan

I was incorrect... It is okay to be in touch on here... It's not okay to ask anyone for any personal information

Let me know if I can help

Re help for someone that's suicidal they can be formed!.. inpatient treatment against ones will if necessary
If you tell your therapist you're feeling suicidal he/she should certainly be doing something about it

    I'm feeling down,, and got alot on my mind right now.  I got grief going on, on top my depression and anxiety and now I got to worry about somewhere to live since I can't afford living here since my mom passed.  So many bad things have happened since my mom passed.  One thing after another it seems.  Yesterday our fence fell from a storm that hit, had to call someone to prop it up.  Thank...
