Ask Me Almost Anything About Bipolar

thank you so much @bipolarbunny this sharing of experiences makes me feel less alone I will definetly write everything down before appointment, I shouldnt say this but it does seem as if my issues could be a mix of bipolar,and possibly things from past trauma or depression/anxiety but anyway I dont know for sure will see what Phychiatrist says best not to other think it besides need to get some sleep thank you again

Hi @bipolarbunny

It’s so lovely to hear from you - it was my pleasure

Absolutely! The opportunity to be able to reach out and connect with people during some of their darkest hours is such a privilege

I can’t even begin to imagine how afraid, confused and frustrated you felt during this time in your life and it sounds as though trying to make sense of everything that was happening for you was an incredibly long, distressing and painful process

Absolutely! Being able to create a sense of meaning and purpose from the experiences in our lives that have resulted in so much pain and distress, can be incredibly powerful and I have every confidence that you will be able to shine the most beautiful light for so many people who are trying to find their way through the darkness

Take care,

ShiningStar

@bipolarbunny

a million thank yous

I have taken the liberty of printing out your replies to make it easier to re-read when I need to... I may even share some with Mr S if that's ok

I also want to make some comments but I can't today....

xoxo

have appointment booked by phone today and although my mind is feeling a bit clearer Im going to have to use sane posts possibly as a way to explain symptoms to doctor by phone ,Ill use these to refer to about my recent mental health symptoms

@LostAngel I am glad I could help in some small way. Yeah overthinking things can lead to more anxiety but it's hard not to some times. Just do your best to get through the coming days till you see your psychiatrist. I wish you the very best. Please know I'm always here to listen and answer any questions as best I can. I may not answer straight away as sometimes when I'm struggling I need to take a break from the forums. But I will always answer you.
Take care xx

@SJT63 Good idea re printing it out, there's a lot there to take in. And yes absolutely feel free to share anything you feel might be helpful with Mr S. Also if Mr S has any questions he'd like to ask, feel free to ask on his behalf. Take care xx
