    Hi I am new here. I was diagnosed bipolar II in 2017 at the age of 46. I have been on medication since then and it has worked and helps me live a somewhat normal life.
    Today I am crashing from my first hypomania episode in 5 years. I feel like I’ve been hit by a truck, I am tired, emotional-tears just rolling nonstop, but most of all I am really scared. I am Terrified actually. I can’t remember any of the coping skills that I have learned. Today I can’t remember anything. I don’t know what to do. I feel lost. #BipolarDisorder

    Feeling Empty in my opinion can be compared to feeling like you don't exist. Feeling Empty can also be compared to suicidal ideation at times.

    What does depression look like? Can you tell when someone is depressed or suffers from depression? How do you look when your depressed?

    Today is World Bipolar Day…I’m proud to say I’m Bipolar and Thriving…how many of you are too? Maybe tell a little of your story…

    Today is World Bipolar Day … it is observed on March 30 every year, on the birthday of Dutch painter Vincent van Gogh — one of the most influential artists in the history of Western art. His creativity was paralleled with his mental illness and he was posthumously diagnosed with bipolar disorder. Bipolar disorder dramatically affects the mood and may result in episodes of depression and elation, which can affect one’s health, productivity, and relationships. World Bipolar Day educates and promotes the spread of information on bipolar disorder through international collaborative efforts

    It’s not what the world takes away from you that matters, it’s what you do with what you have left that counts

    Every day we wake up and have a choice...smile (even in the times of most adversity) or let things bring you down until all you can do is frown. Feeling sorry for yourself gets you nowhere, making the most of what you have builds character, confidence and gives us a chance for a reason to smile. Every day I have to make this choice, I pride myself in having a positive attitude and when I find myself focusing on all the things that have brought me down, instead being thankful that I survived it all...but there are some days when I fail...its a lifelong journey and every day that starts with a smile is a success. Some days it takes part of the day of allowing myself to suffer that I then can hopefully shift to remembering that I am thankful for all the blessings I have in my life to be grateful for! I choose to smile today!

    Mania & Oversharing

    Hi everyone. I’m experiencing mania and have been struggling with over sharing very personal info (even with people I’ve just met). Now I’m totally embarrassed, and worried that I’ve chased them off by doing this! #Bipolar2Disorder #Hypomania #oversharing

    In need of encouragement

    I am in need of encouragement. Im bipolar 2 with MDD and GAD. since last June my 11 yr old daughter has been battling anorexia and depression with severe anxiety. She almost died. Recentky my other kids are showing signs of their own mental health issues. depression anxiety, wanting to dieI blame myself for the genetics but also my own mental health battle making me a less loving, involved, and attentive father and husband.

    I am getting them all the help and helping them start their own journey battling mental health issues, but its taking its toll on me. #Bipolar2Disorder #AnorexiaNervosa #ParentingWithAnIllness

    Did you have stepparents growing up? Did your stepmom or dad treat you better or worse than your biological mom and dad?
