Well who that is bipolar honestly is completely happy? And then once your happy like really really happy that same day hours later you hit rock bottom and something depresses you. Does anyone take medication for their bipolar does it help
@marsea01679
I'm not completely happy but I am working towards that, and I don't mean in a hypomanic/manic kind of way, in a way that makes me stable. I believe that it is possibel, and that we can all do it.
Regarding your question about medication, it works for some, it doesn't work as well for others. And some medications work miracles for some, while for others it does the exact opposite. Finding that careful balance, if you do decide to go down that road, should be supervised by a psychiatrist. Have you ever reached out to one?

I went to a therapist after I told my mom that I was cutting myself I just really didn't like him.
@marsea01679
I've changed a lot of therapists before I found the one who suits me. Just keep going, he/she is not the only one!
I'm sad, so so sad, but I'm fighting with it. I will get new antidepressant. Can't wait. Hope you guys are doing okay. :)
I was depressed for a quite some time, until I reached the bottom, and fell asleep and didn't get out of the bed for 2 days. Today, I got out of the bed, because I have really gone through that for several times, and just didn't want my mum to feel that worried because of me. Then I struggled to not go to bed again for the whole day, and now I feel like I'm lifted up and fear that I plan to rush into things. That is because I always fear the mania, in other words: when I feel like I'm acting, feeling some things which I felt when I was manic, I become insecure, because I made really poor and self-destructive decisions back then. Thankfully, I am going to see my therapist on Tuesday.
@LovingNina
I can completely understand how do you feel about mania. I'm sorry to hear that you're going to tough period, but at the same time glad that you're in therapy, that's really important thing. I hope you're going to be well soon(not in manic way!).
I managed to not go to bed yesterday when I knew that I needed to do that because of depression. Then, somehow, the black veil of depression became lighter. When I got up, I was feeling awful, it was hard to me to do that, but when I did, I've suddenly started to feel better. I am still a little bit in apathy, but I am generally almost ok. :)
Just went through a very hard weekend of high highs and low lows, I have never switched so rapidly and it was pretty exhausting. Today seems good so far, though.
Depressive Episode...I was diagnose about a year ago but haven't found the right therapist for myself yet...I need to refill my medication, it doesn't help but it makes me feel a little better about myself...I'm just glad to know that I'm not the only one in the world with Bipolar Disorder
@Warrior089
Hey! I'm sorry you are going through a hard time, I hope you feel better soon. And yes it is always nice to know you aren't alone in this. We are all here for each other :)
