Hi all. Im looking for a new friend with bipolar 1. Im better but still in crisis. I was off my meds in Jan due to being held for a DUI i got out of but in another conservitave state and i was in 2 weeks and no meds they were too expensive they said so i came out manic. I usualky flip depressive been years sonce mania it was great at first tons o energy, no sleep, songwriting was easy all that. Had some spontaneous drug use too which didnt help. So i got back to my jomecstaye and got me meds their working now im balanced but having horrible dreams of being manic. I go to a bipolar support group in hometown but im still away so was on BL for other things saw mental health. So anyone with bipokar who wants to chat and get to know eachotgervpost or feel free to PM me. Thanks
 
i been diagnosed as bipolar since 2003 but showed clear signs of it from a much earlier age. i have never ceased my drug explorations or allowed it to hinder my enjoyment of life, and am always willing to share my thoughts and experiences :)
 
Being bipo-po is a helluva ride. Manic and feeling like you can conquer the world, then feeling depressed and scared. Ritalin is awesome to deal with the feeling of being scatterbrained. It also boosts my mood. I have ADHD so my mind tends to wander off to different things all the time.

It's really great you go to a bipolar support group, that way you can see people in person who go through your experiences.
 
Thanks yall. Im ADD too and asdderall changed me life im a musician and it helped me laser focus on my songs but it wad taken away at begonibg of year now of your on opiates they cannot prescribe other controlled substances even if yhey dont interact. Dam DEA i jate them. I need the opiates to walk so ive been mufdling thru. Im on alatuda after tribg all bipolar meds and lothium. Moss my lolonopin too i average about 5 panic attacks a day sadly im getting used to them. So yeah theres a great group back home ill be going to until then its you giys. Si wofl you seem together how does it feel to have a grip on your bipolar. I did for a long time i was diagnosed at 10 but back themthey said i was sad to my folks not to scare them but home life was rough so they put me in a childs ward and it was so much fun. No yelling or screaming anymore. Sp yeah its been a struggle ove always self medicated but dont anymore. Thanks yall for posting om not sline:)
 
when you have a decent doctor, a medication regime that works and understnding peoples in your life it can get to the point you wouldnt even consider it a disdvantage. in fact i'm often a little naughty nd 'run myself high' so a as to get the advantages of bein creative and energised etc to help my music endeavours...

5 panic attacks a day would have me suicidal - there's no thing on earth i dislike more than panic attacks :<
 
Yeah I now have like panicousous or something im in a panic attack all the time im just used to it. Its horrible and my provider cant do shit cause only thing that helps is kolonopin and its illegal now to prescribe it with opiates. I need my pain meds to walk so I'm screwed. Hydroxizine is like taking Tylenol for a broken leg. Im sick of it yall my bipolar and anxiety and ADD and blood clots and ostomy bag how much shit am I supposed to put up with. This shit is rest of my life. I hope it's a short life im done yall done!!!
 
I don't have an official diagnosis yet but my doctor said I'm probably bipolar and I also have been charged with a DUI
 
Oh my that sucks. Booze or drugs? Just curious. I would suggest you get that diagnosis asap. I was diagnosed at 10 and was on meds till 14 then thought sex, drugs, and rock and roll was my meds. I did that way too long almost killed me. If you want PM me with some symptoms I AM no Dr but I might as well be I won't judge or diagnose you please don't think that I'd just like to help people I can relate to its the reason Ive decided not to take my life. If you are manic depressive ( I hate bipolar) meds are so important especially bipolar 1 like me im on Latuda and Lithium high doses. It took months of trying different meds to get the right one but you must be patient if you wanna get better. I recently was charged with DUI I have raging insomnia hadn't slept in 5 days and fell asleep driving. Freaking cop just knew for sure I was high and bloodwork was clean so dismissed. I wanted to give him the finger but contempt wasn't something o neede at the time. So yeah PM me or I will you how bout that we can get to know eachother and not tell BL our buisness. Sending now. Take care
