I need to hear from people who understand
Bipolar, Schizophrenia & Psychosis Support / by persistentOwl7949

...See more I was diagnosed with bipolar when I was 17 and I am now 19. Before I was medicated, I would experience these weird things that I called severe anxiety. For example, I went through a period of time where I thought I had bubbles over my head that allowed everyone to read my thoughts. I remember getting out of that period and thinking how that made no sense, but it caused a lot of grief in the moment. I am not sure what that was and I wonder if that was part of a manic episode, but I’m not sure. These thoughts have gone away since I have been medicated, but I still experience episodes of mania and severe depression. ai have been hospitalized twice for my depression and nothing has gotten rid of these episodes. I just feel so defeated by the instability in my life. I am a college student and barely able to function without the support of my parents. I just need a space where someone can tell me i’m not alone.
