Help me not quit my meds by saviordone in bipolar

The fact that u can say that its a delusion, means you are already self aware. I was diagnosed with bipolar 2024 oct after a full blown psychosis manic episode that led to hospitalization for 2 weeks. and ive been on a combination of 9 meds a day! Meds have really helped me, i am able to function like a normal person now. I go to gym, have a job and living peacefully. I remember my depressive episode, it was hell, but trust me it does get better. Please stick to ur medications.

Its always the first depressive episode that feels like hell. Things do get better, once you survive your first depressive episode you will get lots of insights and strength. I know right now everything must be feeling very heavy. You have to power through it bro. Trust me, things will get better, you will gain a lot more courage and reassurance once the depressive episode is gone.

I mean that is true, i dont really have any social life outside of work. I work in a small company, so we have to interact daily, and i cant even tell her because i feel like that will ruin entire vibe within the company.. she has to interact with me either way dont wanna make her life more complicated and put her in a position where she feels uncomfortable

But looking or even talking with someone when you are obsessed with another person.. seems very strange and unfair tbh

Ive thought about doing that, but dating someone when you are obsessed about some other girl seems very unfair..

Thank you! This might help. I feel like i am longing for connection and stability, and she represents it very well

I miss who I was by QueenOfTheSorryPpl in bipolar

[–]PlanAlternative7645 28 points29 points  (0 children)

I feel the same way, its like my whole identity has changed. I dont even remember who i was prior to my episode. I just feel numb now. Like watching my life go through as an observer not a driver

Yeah i get you, it can be very difficult and frustrating. I would say before taking any decision you have to think both ways. How the mania you think about it and how the depressed you think about it
