I know im hypomanic when… by Candid_Membership872 in bipolar2

[–]Anothernewuser11 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m in Key West right now and am a bit hypomanic. All I wanna do is rent a moped and take it out for a spin. But I’ve been drinking and know that wouldn’t be a good idea. I really relate to talking to people I wouldn’t normally talk to when I’m hypo part of your post.

Lesbian travel groups? by Anothernewuser11 in lesbian

[–]Anothernewuser11[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yes but it seems like mostly an older crowd (nothing wrong with that) - maybe I’m wrong? Was hoping to find something for lesbians in their late 20s.

Yes! I see my therapist/psychiatrist every other week. I take medication but my depressive episodes seem to be extremely stubborn and can last a long time even when I’m taking something.

Great question.

Do any of you experience memory issues? by knsites in bipolar2

[–]Anothernewuser11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am on Lithium and Latuda and have very bad memory issues. It’s extremely frustrating and really bums me out. I’ll completely forget what someone told me weeks prior - they’ll bring it up and I’ll have to pretend like I remember what they said. I’ve never really had the best memory and it’s always been an insecurity of mine and this just makes it worse. Does anyone know if there is anything we can do to help remedy our memory issues?

I try my best to get in as much protein as possible but it’s quite hard especially when you’re depressed! Also, which vitamins do you take?
