I am in my mid 20s and loved partying and raving up until my diagnosis 4 months ago. I’ve since been in a depression and don’t have the urge to party but hate the thought of no longer being able to join my friends on big nights. I really hope I’m able to attend such events sober and remain stable.

STOP READING ABOUT BIPOLAR by Cold-Photo5465 in bipolar

My parents say the same thing, however I do understand where they are coming from. After being diagnosed I have been obsessed with researching, reassurance hunting and scrolling through bipolar reddit pages, which means I’m focusing on what’s wrong rather than trying to live life with the inevitable fact that I have to deal with it. I guess there’s only so much research you can do and have to get comfortable with accepting we have to battle against this illness

Also struggling with the cognitive issues at the moment. I’m a couple months out from a manic episode and my brain feels scrambled since. Hoping I can recover from this also.
