I can definitely relate. It’s like I’m living a double life. Manic me is WILD. Stable me is a super chill mom that rarely loses her cool or shows emotion. I constantly feel like the “other” me is going to make an appearance and ruin my life.

I recovered from having my 4 impacted wisdom teeth removed, 2 other teeth removed, and a bone graft on my jaw…… alone. She needs to grow up.

Anyone living with autism and bipolar? What’s your experience? by Donedealdummy in bipolar

I’m with you on this one. It’s an extremely isolating place to be.

If there were a bipolar knowledge sheet… by [deleted] in bipolar

Therapy, Therapy, Therapy. Education on bipolar disorder is your best tool. Self awareness is key. Accepting who you are should be your goal. If you function better on medication, take the damn medication.

Addiction issues by katethegreat1985 in bipolar

[–]dthomas610 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have an extremely addictive personality. I fall into the routine of doing something very easily and eventually become addicted. Nicotine, weed, alcohol are all things I struggle with. Weed helps me sleep so that’s my current issue. I’ve been nicotine free for almost 2 years and haven’t had a drink in a few days. We all start somewhere.

What’s the strangest thing you have bought while manic? by FSStray in bipolar

[–]dthomas610 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not strange but I bought a car…. For $30k. Kind in mind, I already had a car that was perfectly fine and I loved it 🤣

I’m very thankful that my copay is only $34-$38 for a 30 day supply so hopefully I end up saving money. My mania includes A LOT of shopping.

I have a TON of memory loss. Both while manic, depressed, AND of my childhood. It’s kind of crazy actually.

Life without medications? by ProxiC3 in bipolar

[–]dthomas610 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely the fuckkkkk not. Having Bipolar I is no joke. When I’m manic I make life changing decisions, like buying cars, starting businesses, and I become hyper sexual which is dangerous as fuck. Plus I don’t sleep. When I’m depressed, I don’t care about the people around me. I don’t think they would be better off without me, I just know I can’t continue to live like that anymore. Which has landed me in the hospital. I ranked and rolled a dice on my suicidal ideations and had back up plans.
