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 was diagnosed about a month ago.I know about the mood swings and the ultra highs and lows and I understand the mania I sometime have,but I just don,t get it.I thought this was just life and it was the things are.I guess that I have a lot to learn.

I would say you have a lot to learn. Bipolar ups and downs are nothing like "life's" ups and downs in any way, shape, form, or fashion. You will undertand the longer you live with it. The higher you go - the lower you go til pretty soon you'll be screaming you hate this damn disorder or you love it one....depending on if you're manic or depressed at the time. I wish you all the luck in the world. You have a long road ahead of you and all of us are here to help.

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...
