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.
Oh how I wish that I wasn't sick with this disabiling diseas, bipolar wipes a person out, even the strong fall hard in their due season. I have been holding on to hope for last 8 mnths cause I have been feeling pretty low, med changes didn't help...gggrrrrrr Yesterday I hit near bottom, cried all day, had to call crisis line. 3 yrs ago I stumbled down to the dark pit of major depression and spent a year there! I am feeling I am just an inch away from falling through that door again. I'm scared, lonely, angry.
I do find that other techniques can help me lift up out of the "pit". They include meditation in which I cleanse my emotions and fill my body with healing light. The other thing I do is try to exercise, even if its just a short burst of energy, it can get my energy level up enough to see a bit more hope instead of dispair.
Sending you love and healing energy! Hope the new pdoc works out for you.
