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.
i just read the medications you are on..you said you are going to be starting abilify soon...i think that will be good if it is the right med for you..and if not you can just keep working with your pdoc to find the right one,or one's. don't lose hope mona....once i got the right meds everything will get alot better....i'm still working to find just the right combo...but so far, this seems to be really helping my moods. also, do you think your college may have a group for students with mental illnesses such as bi-polar, anxiety...ect... this could be a good support system for you too...also NAMI has support groups nation wide...they are really supposed to be good..i have not been able to try one yet because of schedule..but now i have more free time, so i would like to go to one...anyway...we're here for you, and you are not alone . a hug for you, maggie
