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.
Meds Shmeds.... I just want to be able to support myself and be somewhat stable.... so again.. take the meds and doom myself to depression, or not take them and self medicate....
They need time for you to adjust as they adjust as you adjust etc.
You want to be brave too.Depressions suck but mate...you don't want to make the crushing blow so hard in the future.
I drink like a fish too sometimes, ON meds! I know, smart, huh? Oh well, it doesn't seem to bother me really. I just dance and sing the night away, pass out, and wake up feeling much the same as I usually do the next morning...no hangover the majority of the time.
