Hello! I have Bipolar Type II, currently in a hypomanic episode. I feel good, I can study, though my focus is a bit off. It's been 3 days in a high after a month of a major depressive episode, so now I'm feeling okay. I hope it lasts lol


How are you all feeling? How was your year and how did this one start?

Hey there. I have bipolar type II also. I have been in a hypomanic episode for 2 months now. It’s much better than being depressed with low energy and low motivation. I know what ya mean about it lasting. Some of my best times were in hypomania. Like public speaking about my recovery in mental illness to 200 junior high students.


I’m feeling pretty good. Finally getting my life on track after staying in a shelter for 2 months due to leaving an abusive relationship with the father of my child. My year was rough but great at the same time because I got to see my beautiful baby boy grow up. He changed me for the better. The hard part was dealing with my abusive ex gas lighting me and yelling at me on the daily. Thank god I got out that relationship. I sign a lease tomorrow for my new place and will start a full time job at the end of the month. Here’s to new beginnings!! 💕☮️
