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.
Set off by off-beat stuff--like taking my daughter to her first Brownie meeting, where the pastor's wife was the leader. I could not speak sensibly & my heart pounded & I broke out in a sweat. For petes sake, I knew her.
Sometimes my anxiety manifests as social anxiety---but this is more so when I am depressed, can't stand myself and fear the company of others. Isolation, I guess, a biproduct of depression....and I know, not really social anxiety.
I don't have problems talking to strangers. So I guess no.
