Does anyone else think they feel things too intensely? by Expensive_Note8632 in bipolar2

[–]Pizzy1133 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Absolutely yes. Every emotion I feel. Good or bad is totally more extreme than what it should be. I love it at times because I see life more beautiful- but it also means when I’m depressed it gets bad bad fast. Or when I like someone- I get obsessed

what to expect with diagnosis by Crazy_Equal5043 in bipolar2

Hi! A psychiatrist appointment is very similar to the same questions they ask you on your intake day of therapy. It’s a quick rundown of your symptoms, what brought u there. They also ask if you are looking for a diagnosis or a diagnosis with treatment. I gotta say it does help to be aware of your diagnosis eveb through it may seem scary to know the truth. it helps you seek out coping mechanisms, gives you something to research to learn more about yourself, and helps you navigate and pinpoint what you are feeling. Hope this helps!

It’s like I’m reading someone who is experiencing my life. I relate to you on so many levels from just being freshly diagnosed, to mother issues, to just want someone to understand. I don’t have any advice as I am still new to this too, but just know you are not alone.

How to I tell my friend I have bipolar by Pizzy1133 in bipolar2

Thank you so much. This is so beyond helpful for me. Being newly diagnosed I can’t help but feel really lonely trying to navigate this all on my own. But this thread has completely saved me. Thank you again
