It sounds like you probably take care of yourself and get the best care you can, so I hope you'll be fine man. I hate you have to deal with that. I know have 4 friends that are bipolar. 3 of them take care of themselves and all are mostly happy and do well. The 1 that doesn't take care of himself has been a real mess recently. I've dealt with drug addiction and heavy anxiety before, so I can't fully relate, but definitely thoughts go out to you. Sounds corny but if you ever need an ear or anything, feel free to PM me.

Thanks, I appreciate it.

I actually don't take meds or really take care of ito be honest. I actually called my mom at work this morning at like 9:30 am after being up for 2 1/2 days with no sleep due to mania and just broke down crying to her. IVe tried therapists but just end up ditching out on them after 2 sessions. I just deal with it the best I can which some days means just getting out of bed is an accomplishment.

Yes of course. But most people only see that side of it. "Normal" people don't realize their own sanity is pretty fragile. They might not develop schizophrenia on the street but trauma and stress fukk up normal people. Not everyone, but that shyt can break you. Just like having money doesn't fukk up everyone but an all you can snort coke buffet, Xanax dispenser and 50 million dollars would destroy me before spring.

I've never heard of bi polar developing into schizophrenia. That's crazy. Bi polar is hard enough to medicate. Not to mention resisting treatment is basically a symptom in itself. Good luck man. It's a long road :mjcry:

Very true. At this point I've just accepted I have it and deal with it on life's terms. Meaning I'm lonely as fukk and my life's a mess lol But it pretty much makes it impossible for me to have relationships beyond friend ships and Its very hard to maintain 1 job for more than a few months due to the depression side and the high irritability we get when we're manic, also because of how impulsive we are, for example People with bipolar are more than likely to commit suicide than just someone with depression because of how much more impulsive we are.

its literally life hindering. I've moved back and forth to Florida twice in the past 3 years and have gone through probably like 10 jobs

The reason being that bipolar can develop (depending on if you have type 1 or 2) into schizophrenia as you get older and if it's in treated is because a. Mental illness gets worse the older you get and b. The mania can be similar to symptoms of schizophrenia.: delusions of grandeur, euphoria etc etc

And yeah that's a big reason why I don't take meds. Most people who are bipolar who are medicated have to take like 3+ different pills a day because you can't just take something for depression because the mania.

So basically, y'all are a bunch of grown ups who can't control your emotions or handle adult situations.

Damn.
