Question:

Any body have Bipolar disorder, if so how do you live with it?

I don't like admitting it to everyday real life people, but thats the good thing about internet anonymitty ... anyways I diagnosed myself with it, I never went to a doctor for it, I don't like the thought of taking neuro-meds ... anyways sometimes I get so depressed I just get sad, sometimes I even think about death, like if I died everything would just be finally over. Then I get serious hypomania where I'm just so hyper and have to move my hands or something in real fast and short burst movements... and then there's the days where it's just plain rage, not one thing goes by without somehow pissing me off. I feel so bad for my grandparents who have to deal with this but I can't help it, I try to fake it which is possible because I have a lot of privacy, I just go to my room with my current mood thoughts. Anyways, anybody else like this, please tell me how you tolerate it.

I forgot to put, it's not that I don't like the thought of being on anti-psychotics, I have no medical insurance, and probably can't afford them.


Answers:

It sounds like it may be bipolar disorder. I think its very important that you go to a psychiatrist to be diagnosed. I never liked taking medications, either. But its much better than the state I am in without them!

Good luck and take care of you!
