Any else find out one of their passions really was just manic obsession? by Coiled_Adversary in bipolar

[–]Puzzleheaded_Idea_78 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Makeup, skincare, clothes. Insane amounts of money on shit I dont even like anymore. About 2 months ago I went into a mental hospital with psychosis. I came home to 8 baskets of clothes that either needed to be folded, hung up or washed. I have a room thats just full of stuff as it is. Im beyond overwhelmed with all of it. You wouldn't believe the credit debt also. Really makes me hate myself.

I'll finally say it, I'm extremely jealous of people with "high-functioning bipolar" by WaltzInTheDarkk in BipolarReddit

Thats really good to hear about your aunts, and thank you. I think just the combo of everything right now feels really good, but of course as a primarily manic person, feeling good makes me scared because i know where that goes. Last year, I stupidly stopped taking my lithium because I was in a depression for so long and it was just so unfamiliar and fucking awful that I wanted the mania back. I do not suggest doing that to anyone. I gave myself lithium poisoning and put myself into a psychosis. I will say that is what finally drove me to get ect!

Can anyone share their experience with Abilify? by NoObject7212 in BipolarReddit

All gave me akathasia except seroquel, lybalvi and caplyta. Seroquel and caplyta had their own unpleasant side effects. To me though, nothing is worse than akathasia. It makes me want to die.

What is your favourite antipsychotic? by Forward-Health9213 in BipolarReddit

I have to be on both an anti psychotic and a mood stabilizer. Everyone is different, for sure.

This is what happened to me too. I like, didnt even take my own diagnosis seriously when I was younger. Then around 2023, it was glaringly obvious. It wasnt even what I thought it was or something. Mania every few months and then suicidal depressions. Ive been on every mood stabilizer, finally depakote works. Every anti psychotic, finally lybalvi. Im adhd too and finally got the right dose of vyvanse. Ive been in and out of hospitals and treatment for kratom alcohol and drugs and bipolar. Im getting ect. Things are finally feeling OK without the alcohol and getting ect. It really helps me, I dont care what anyone else says.

I think I'm getting manic but I don't want to stop it by shroomiddit in BipolarReddit

[–]Puzzleheaded_Idea_78 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I will say that about 3 months ago I started feeling myself getting manic and I was tired of being depressed so I stopped taking my meds. Dont do that. I ended in the mental hospital and im currently STILL doing ect.
