Bio

Love is not about grand intentions. It is about small attentions. I am a firm believer that often the answer lies inside you, waiting to be uncovered.

I'm particularly interested in depression, bipolar and sexual health but happy to listen to others with different things in mind.

My experience with bipolar 2

...See more Hi everyone! I am very grateful to be part of this community, hope you are all well. I was diagnosed with bipolar 2 nearly four years ago, after four years of a succession of manic and depressive episodes. At the time, I had no idea that these were episodes. I was diagnosed with depression and treated with antidepressants. I tried several antidepressants, but they all made me very high. Virtually everyone I knew wanted to take whatever I was taking! Since I felt so much better, thinking that I had overcome depression, I started to reduce medication and this made me fall into a depression again. Each depression was worse than the previous one and I became suicidal. Hopefully, I found the right doctor at the right time and she diagnosed me with bipolar 2. A mood stabilizer was added to my medication and it was then when I started feeling better. It has now been four years of stability. I am constantly on the look for treatments, coping skills and routines that work and sharing is so important. I don't know about you, but I still feel it's so difficult to tell people about being bipolar. One of the things that help me, apart from reading you guys and being a listener is writing and I would like to share with you my blog, in the hope that my experience can be a shortcut to someone else.
