Hi, I have been newly diagnosed with BP in the last couple of years. I have finally found some meds that work. This seems like a good website for support, my husband has a hard time dealing with this disease, and most times I feel really alone and angry. Just thought I would reach out and meet some people that can understand me.

Welcome I belive when it comes to familly members that education is the key if he feels uncomftorable he doesn't understand it. Unfortunatly can't help him other than giving him material. Often times what we say to loved ones sounds like excuses I think.

Welcome to DS! Are you concealing weapons? It's just a precautionary method that we do. Like, do you have automatic weapons? Do you think Bi-Polars are sick and disgusting? Do ya think BP'ers are just just faking it? If you're here for answers to some of your questions.. then, welcome to the club!

Welcome 134, this is a great place to be for support and understanding. It took me a long time to understand myself with the disorder let alone the facts and emotions of the disorder alone. Give him some time and as much info as you can. Communication from you about how you are feeling and what you are experiencing is very important. Love and understand yourself and share that with your hubby, he will come around. Big hugs and prayers for you. (((((HUGS)))))) Shelly

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
