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.
Realized I don't know most of the names of the people here, or how to even pronounce your usernames in some cases, lol. I guess I'll make a little questionnaire thing and you can just answer the ones you want to answer.
What is your name?
Nicknames? Online or IRL
Do you have a preferred pronoun? (she/hers, him/his, or they/their's)
How do you pronounce your username?
How'd you come up with your username?
...No really how'd you come up with that? I want the real story.
Woo-woo section:
What's your astrological sign?
Briggs-Meyers personality type?
Temperament: Melancholic, Choleric, Sanguine, Phlegmatic?
I'll start
-chris
-no 'universal' nickname, but my best friend calls me coffeecake. I have one or two others that I don't personally deem pg13-board-safe, lol.
-please try to call me 'they'
-self-explanatory. I made that two years ago, in retrospect it seems kind of pretentious. Kind of embarrassing now, looool. Not as bad as my Myspace name was.
-I stressed about it and my mind blanked, coulda been intentionally lamer tbh
-Virgo sun, Cancerian moon, I don't know if I'm a 'cusp' sign or a 'rising' anything, I didn't look that far into it. Ruling planet is Mercury though and I do have a mercurial nature.
-INTP
-melancholic mostly but slightly choleric also

Which explains the mysterious fevers and my extra fatigue. I'm so glad I pushed for answers.

Due to my increased paranoia, anxiety, and a panic attack over the weekend, my psychiatrist has put me back in a full dose of Zyprexa until further notice. Every time I think I'm getting ahead something happens and it's back to square one. I knew he was gonna do this but I can't help feeling disappointed. It is what it is.
What is your name?
Nicknames? Online or IRL
Most people address me as "Your imperial radiance"
Do you have a preferred pronoun? (she/hers, him/his, or they/their's)
His
How do you pronounce your username?
Lord WooWoo
How'd you come up with your username?

The family name was originally D'Wooster, the family came over with the normans (plus a few Franks) in 1066.
In 1155 one of my ancestor's Richard D'Wooster was made a lord by Henry II (Henry Curtmantle). Henry was so nervous that he developed a stutter and when he knighted Richard he said
"A-A-Arise Lord Woo,Woo.."
There was a bit of an awkward silence and the Richard wisely decided to adopt his new given name and the family name became Woo-Woo.

Briggs-Meyers personality type?
Meyers-Briggs and it's not really woo woo having been emprically tested and based on Jung's original work on personality types. Actually I am a licenced practitioner and I'm an INFP. ( "I'm not fully present")
Temperament: Melancholic, Choleric, Sanguine, Phlegmatic?
Woo-Woo
