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 have always had trouble opening up to people, because in all honesty they do not understand.
Therapists, they know what the textbooks say.
doctors- all they need to know is if you are bleeding or in a coma, other then that they will write you a script to fix what ails you.
other people- they think they know what it is like but they don't
other people with other mental health disorders, close but not completely there.
People with Bipolar disorder, my peers. they know what it is like. they know all the bullshit that is out there they know what happens when you are manic or depressed. the real world and how screwed up it can be and how you can screw up and destroy the world around you.
since I have discovered this place I feel more relaxed. I feel open and I feel like I have so much knowledge that I have built up and I had nowhere to use it.
now I do, you guys are amazing and know what it is really like.
I can relate.
this probably sounds stupid but thank you, I will be stickign around here for a long time :)

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...
it really helps..
