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.
Cause seriously.
This--ALL FOR KRISSIKAT!
There are other peeps here who need help, that actually ARE with BEEPEE and actually DO take or WANT to take med but can't even afford them.
Count your blessings.
yes, i do not take meds for my issues/illness, but i can not afford to see a doctor, can not afford pills. it's tougher for me cause finacially i can not get the help i need. but to see this is just unreal to me. anyways, befoer i get more pissy about this, i gotta stop.
Krissi, stop your bitching and take your fucking meds. I have written you a hundred times and talked to you over and over. Once these meds are in your system you and your doctor can figure out what your other mental illness is.
Everyone else, yes, you are all right. Krissi is not accepting our help, but she is doing better. So, instead of antagonizing the situation anymore, let's not provide additional fodder for her delusions by disagreeing with her.
Would you try to take a drunk to an AA meeting when they are drunk? No. Would you try to talk logically to someone who is in a schizo-affective state? No. So, the logic that we are all trying to provide to Krissi is falling on deaf ears for now. And all it is doing is spinning her further into schizo-affective behavior.
So, for now, just agree with her that she has some type of mental illness, whatever it is.
Krissi, whatever your new mental illness is, they are going to treat it with the same types of drugs, because it is most likely an increased amount of dopamine that has sent you further toward schizophrenia and schizo-affective disorder rather than bipolar disorder. So regardless of what you think about being bipolar, the meds are going to be the same.
That's it. Done. Finis. No more. Krissi, go to day hospital, and take your fucking meds. There is no reasoning with someone who is not in a place of logic, so don't expect us to understand your delusion regarding your "new mental illness" and your "being too smart for this particular world" and maybe being a being from somewhere else to come here and experience this for us. If that's the case, you still have to be medicated, and you will be taking the same meds no matter what. So just take the fucking meds.f
As for having your children taken away from you, yes, they can be taken away from you even if you have not threatened to harm them. If you are mentally ill and you are not treated properly for it, and you show that you are delusional, the judge will find you incompetent, appoint you a guardian (probably your husband), and you will only be allowed to see your children under supervised visits, REGARDLESS of whether or not you have threatened to harm them. Trust me on this, I know what I am talking about.
So take the fucking meds for your kids' sake so you can experience your new mental illness with the same fucking meds that they wuold give you for it.
'Nuff said. The end. Period.
