Wow @Mar1 ,

Pretty impressive. We'd love to hear your experiences!

It's great to hear that you have managed to get on track with your bipolar. I'm sure you certainly have a lot to share.

What were some things you found helpful to get you to a point where you could better manage your bipolar?

I have great faith in the health system so reach out to professional councilors they will do their best with advice about the means of medication that may be needed to get your mental health back in balance and avoid hospital
