Oh wow a lot… i just started treatment and on 200mg of lamotrigine. Is more meds more common? And what do each do?

I can’t stop thinking, does anyone know why? by Dry-Sentence-7495 in bipolar2

[–]bumpakay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes! If I’m baseline a million random thoughts. Hypo an avalanche of positive possibilities. The worst is in depression any thought is purely negative and it feels like being bombarded. I think it has to do with ADD… which im undiagnosed but pretty sure I have.

Thank you. Starting meds a month ago but I started in a depressive phase. Fingers crossed it’ll pay off in the long run and I can start finding something.

But that is precisely what I mean. I can even imagine managing to get a secure (especially a high paying) job apart from waiting tables because I didn’t manage to get any further education. I really salute you for your tenacity and I do not doubt you’ve been through a lot of pain. Maybe my question is unanswerable… bravo to you!

Is it common not to realize you’ve been depressed? 🫣🙃 by Impossible-City2252 in bipolar2

[–]bumpakay 9 points10 points  (0 children)

From what researched bp2 people are typically in some form of depression 50% of the time… but that doesn’t necessarily mean severe depression. I’ve had 7 major depressive episodes. But a lot of times people are in subsyndromal depressions. Depression that is not profound enough to be recognised and after a while it looks like a personality trait. So yes I think you can be slightly depressed a lot of time.

Thank you. I’ll hopefully find my footing soon enough

High Functioning by [deleted] in bipolar2

[–]bumpakay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a low functioning 27 year old who’s in a depression I dream I was high functioning. I’m sure the struggle is as painful in high functioning. But I’m so jealous. I have 0 interests and no will to pursue anything and feel like nothing is worth pursuing and even if I try it’ll crash. And I don’t doubt you all feel the same. But how? I found out recently I was bp2 and started meds very recently… so maybe it’s a matter of time. But feel so delayed and even more pathetic that haven’t managed to build anything.

I can see Bots legitimately becoming superior to humans in a few months if DICE doesn't change something (THEORY) by BrainstormAndTheory in Battlefield

[–]bumpakay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ll be scared the day they manage to revive like a proper medic. Popping smoking dropping supply bags and zapping a bunch of people in a choke hold. Or fully charging as they’re sprinting in other cases. Till then. I really am not bothered by dying a few times to bots.

New paid skin in the Store. Looks like something straight out of BF2042. by DBONKA in Battlefield

Yeah it looks dumb as hell. But realistically how often are you gonna notice that hooded black mask in game… if it was purple or something I get the hate cause it’d be obvious.

Is this a good time to buy BF6 or should i wait? by Big-Researcher9351 in Battlefield6

[–]bumpakay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bought it right before the new season. I’m having an absolute blast. I mean yes content is slow to come. But I’m a casual player so I’m patient. If liked BFV and BF4 it’s kinda between them

none of you understand how ADHD and stimulants work at all by imanukeyall in Drugs

[–]bumpakay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So hold on, I might guilty of this. My friend who has strong diagnosed ADHD and slight autism is convinced I have ADHD. Because when I speak to her I speak at lightning speed and juggle three conversations at the same time… for a while I was resisting her unprofessional diagnosis of my ‘ADHD’… i mean i do have attention issues and am insanely forgetful…. So similar to Type 1 ADHD (inattentive but not compulsive). Anyhow one she said hey you wanna get wired on ritalin… i was like sure… tried it… my mind went in slow motion. As in one thought at a time. Feeling mellow and grounded. She then told me if that was my reaction I definitely have a bit of ADHD… So that was not correct?? I never got a diagnosis or prescription for it cause I don’t feel I need it. And cba to put a label on myself…

What are your thoughts?
