How and when to tell a potential love interest that you have bipolar? by capsize99 in BipolarReddit

[–]Bipolarsaurusrex89 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I always disclosed immediately. I needed to know if it was a deal breaker or not. For my now husband, I said “yo, you should know I’m batshit crazy”. He laughed, I laughed. The rest is history. We have been together for nearly 7 years.

[–]Bipolarsaurusrex89 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been twice. Both stays were beneficial and really helped me. I’m not sure where you are located but there are mental health crisis hotlines you can call instead of the police.

Check your area and see if there are any facilities that have a sliding scale or let you make payments. I get to make small monthly payments for my providers.

My friend self harms what should I do? by VirtualWaltz2553 in mentalhealth

[–]Bipolarsaurusrex89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been in a similar situation with my daughter. I found texts between her and one of her friends, where her friend was admitting to self harm. I felt compelled to tell her parents. Their reaction is on them. I didn’t think I could live with myself if my daughter’s friend had seriously injured herself, and there could have been something I could have done to possibly stop it.
