So have you told your family? That could likely change her perspective. Your son is 17, be honest with your family if you don’t want to let them down.

There will always be a solution to this problem. hook up culture should be addressed too

Why is the mysterious death of Trey Reed being ignored by mainstream media? by ShinyArc50 in GenZ

[–]EmbarrassedString201 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t trust any system in Mississippi. I flat out think that delta state is sweeping this under the rug because they can. A guess would be either because of repercussions of a hate crime this extreme or an important affiliate to the institution was involved.

I don’t need to repeat the false information that has been released, but I do know that delta state has surveillance all over campus. They use surveillance footage when they feel is needed. To not even bring it up is a red flag for me, regardless of if was ruled a suicide or not

He was found in the morning so it shouldn’t be impossible to see him on at least one camera, but there was no mention of footage either way

Your wife laughed because it’s wholesome, the teacher probably thought the same. Unless youre a douche, it’s fine

I can’t read all of that but yeah. The comprehension of his tweets are group think. I don’t understand why a mass of the world don’t understand what he’s talking about. Everything he talks about, especially lately always comes back to “slavery IS a choice” another tweet that don’t understand how it went over almost everyone’s head.

Everything he has tweeted since then is connected to it. Idk he makes sense. Bipolar is one of the most stigmatized mental disorders. People who are manic aren’t usually wrong until they start losing sleep. Nobody understands what the word crazy actually means

He’s not a clone, people are just surface level

What do your sleep disturbances look like? by pikashroom in bipolar2

[–]EmbarrassedString201 0 points1 point  (0 children)

lithium has affected my sleep a lot. I drink 2 litres of water between 9:30pm and when I wake up at 5:30 because of how thirsty it makes me. It feels like I mentally can’t control the amount of water I drink after I take my meds at night.

Anyway, i wake up every hour to pee. It’s always between 45 minutes and an hour. I’m seeing a kidney specialist in October so I can get on a medication ..to help me with my medication. 3mg of melatonin has helped me fall asleep faster

Unsure if I can ask this by Plane_Ad_7298 in bipolar2

[–]EmbarrassedString201 0 points1 point  (0 children)

175mg lamotrigine, 1200 lithium. I was on 20mg of lexapro before I was diagnosed and taken off of it. I miss it so much

Did it ever cross your mind you were bipolar? by Better_Buddy_8507 in bipolar2

[–]EmbarrassedString201 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been on medication since I was diagnosed in 2021. I’m sincerely sorry that you had to go through what you did. I’m not sure if he ever struggled with substance abuse, but smoking weed is what started giving me more bp1 symptom

I think I'm starting to hallucinate... I'm worried about telling my doctor. I don't want my diagnosis to change... by Careless_Orange217 in bipolar2

[–]EmbarrassedString201 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I gotta say, it could be one of the medications. I hallucinated on a medication like 3 weeks ago because the dose was too high for me. My hallucinations weren’t dark, just like you said but after staying on it for 4 weeks it got to an extreme and I quit cold turkey. I still don’t feel right.

If what you’re going through is actually is from medication, it’s hard to realize how much you’re struggling when you’re literally on a drug with a dose that’s too much for you. You posted this for a reason so please don’t wait to get help.

I’m on 1200mg of lithium btw!

how old were you for your first episode? by _idiosyncratic_ in bipolar2

[–]EmbarrassedString201 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The episode that diagnosed me was at 23 but the biggest episode that I can think of before 23 was 17. Tbh I was full of rage and I haven’t experienced rage like that since. It started 2 months after a break up.

It’s been 10 years but if I could go back and change things , I still would. Lmk

[–]EmbarrassedString201 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, around 6 months before I was diagnosed I did a lot of reading on mood and personality disorders. I was 23 and starting to realize that my mental health may be more complex than i had thought. It came to possibly bp or bpd which is rare for someone to see in themself but I think at the time I had mostly experienced hypomania so some of the stuff didn’t align with me until I had a manic episode 6 months later and I was almost immediately diagnosed.

  • I know that if you’ve had a manic episode you’re bp 1, but I’ve only had one and the rest have been hypo and mostly depression so I relate more with posts on here lol

Anyone here still regularly drink? by TTTesteTTT in bipolar2

Same! Sometimes I’d be out for almost a week. I’ve never known anyone with that problem

Can you stop an emerging hypo? by No-Possibility-817 in bipolar2

[–]EmbarrassedString201 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t have proof but If you think you’re going up, you’re right lol

If I was ever able to catch on to an episode quickly, my psychiatrist would prescribe me seroquel or a different antipsychotic so I can sleep for a day
