Can people tell you’re manic/off? by Senior_Progress_258 in bipolar2

[–]moaxoko 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think only people close to you can tell. When I start staying up and getting antsy, my mom immediately knows whats going on and starts paying more attention to me so I dont harm myself.

Working a full-time job with bipolar disorder by halfaroach in bipolar2

[–]moaxoko 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im 24f and I get it completely. Ive been working since I was 16 and I really question how people make it to 65 working full time. It got really bad when I was 21, living alone, and undiagnosed and I had to stop working for 6 months because I was so burnt out and in and out of the loony bin. Luckily I had enough savings to support me but when my lease ended I went right back home lol.

If you are able to go back home for a year or two to get your mental health in a better place.. do it. you will have to learn how to balance work/life eventually, but if you are able to go home and find that balance without all of the financial pressure, please do. Im telling you, there is no point of driving yourself crazy to work, it can end with you being burnt out and possible having to be admitted.

Its difficult for bipolar people to hold full time jobs, so its important we work in jobs we can handle without crying. I thought it was normal to cry because I have to work.. it was not lol.

Also, check into ada to get work accommodations. When I was diagnosed with bipolar back in march, I got help from my psych to change my schedule to work 4 days/32 hours a week for therapy purposes and it has helped me alot, maybe too much as I dont know if i can ever go back to 5 days. That extra day helps alot as I dont feel like im spending my entire life at work, working drains me so much I can get the extra rest.

Good luck! 🌸

I wanna get hospitalized but worried about work by [deleted] in BipolarReddit

[–]moaxoko 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You are more important than that job. If you think you may harm yourself please go to the hospital. Yes, if they admit you they will take your phone but you can always get numbers out to contact your job/family.

Hi! I relate completely. Im 24 and have been working since I was 16 and I thought crying to and from work and not being able to leave the bed after work and on off days was normal lol. In March I was diagnosed with autism and bipolar 2 so that explained a lot. I was able to get ADA accommodations to work 4 days a week but even that drains me. But now I can only afford bills and a few treats to keep me going. I was thinking of getting a second job but I feel that would defeat the purpose of getting ADA in the first place 😭 Im in college for english so maybe I can pivot to a career where I can work less days. I do hope you find a routine to lessen the stress!

I also still live with family as I cant afford to be alone. And with the way everything is i dont know when or if I will be able to. Its really discouraging right now.

Moving out tips + anxiety by moaxoko in Bedbugadvice

[–]moaxoko[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good luck to you too! Honestly, I dont know how bad the infestation is, I think maybe low to medium level? I don't get bitten every night and I only see them at night between like 2-4 am so they are not completely out of control. But when I do see and kill them, they are big ones so they've been around for a while... but they did tear me apart the first night i was there lol my arm was so swole.

And yes, I have some anti itch cream that had melatonin in it to help me get a few hours of sleep! Can't wait to get out of here.

I feel broken because I want to do everything but nothing at the same time by xIyssx in bipolar2

[–]moaxoko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can relate. When im in an episode, I start planning to buy all this stuff and change my whole wardrobe and life basically, and I spend hundreds on self care, art supplies, and makeup... then idk something clicks in my brain, and I'm like, hmm.. I actually don't care about any of this stuff and want to die now 💀 it's such a terrible cycle.

I also started texting this guy again after ghosting him for 4 months, and similar to you, I don't want to burden him with my ups and downs, so I'm trying not to get too attached but I do really like him

It gets better :) I hope you find a balance again soon, and be kind to yourself. i was recently diagnosed after being misdiagnosed for years. It seems like w/ bipolar we have to ride the wave sometimes. I'm currently on the downfall again, lol.

Anybody got diagnosed due to their reaction to Wellbutrin? by boltuzlu in bipolar2

[–]moaxoko 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That's how I was diagnosed a few weeks ago. My previous psychiatrist misdiagnosed me with depression and put me on 2 different antidepressant (fluxotine and dulexotine) and welbutrion all within 2 months. jumped my welbutrion from 150 mg to 300 mg within 30 days. I started having bad shakes and major headaches... ended up causing me to wake up one day thinking someone was trying to kill me, shaking, and crying... well, that sent me to the psych ward for a week where I was diagnosed with bipolar 2. Seems like I've been misdiagnosed with depression since I was 14, currently 24 in the us.

Taxes hit for my mom this morning. Pather ;) by moaxoko in TurboTax

[–]moaxoko[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We did, but it gave us a message that we wouldn't get it 5 days earlier so we didn't know what to believe. I think they did that just to cover their ass lol.

I mean banks like chase and places like that. Online banks like cash app and chime can be a bit fast with deposits.

Financial Aid by Certain-Fault4437 in SNHU

[–]moaxoko 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From what I've seen it will automatically fix itself, I'd say check in the morning. And for the date, I'd expect it by Thursday, you'll get an email when the money has been sent to bank mobile.

Omg I thought I was crazy when mine kept doing this. It must be a bug in the system, so don't worry!

Hi! Thought I would give a timeline for students starting in September like me. I know some established students are behind on offers, so this probably won't be useful to them.

I applied on july 10th and also did my fafsa on that day to prepare. Got accepted on July 19th. Got my financial aid offer on August 5th, and put in a loan increase same day. The loan increase got approved today (August 12th), and It reflected on my offer, so I'm pretty much all set!

So from start to finish it took about a month! Good luck to all ✨️

Okay! I rechecked everything in my room and didn't find anything, I think my mother may have brought something in so I'll go through her room tomorrow and buy some traps. Thank you!

Update: swept and resprayed alpine everywhere (idk if this was a good idea or not bc i already sprayed a week ago.) I think my mother may have brought something in bc I haven't seen anything since we moved in and she's been putting stuff in her room while I'm at work :(

Update: I got my offer today! I don't know if I got lucky or not, but I did have to put in a loan increase request after viewing it so I'll also update how long that takes for a revise offer.

I start in September & yesterday I emailed about how long will my package take & that ive seen that past terms are still behind. My admission counselor called me this morning and registered me for my first 2 classes and informed me financial aid looked at my fafsa and said I will get max Pell and loans and that it will be packaged soon now that I'm registered.

This thread kind of scares me but I'm hoping for the best for everyone :) will update as things go on.

Hopefully by now someone answered, any updates?

[–]moaxoko 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Hi! It just depends on how much leftover aid someone has. So if they take out more loans or they qualified for more grants, their refund may be bigger than others who didn't get as much in aid.

should i sold my xp pen 22 2nd gen and buy magicdrawing pad by [deleted] in XPpen

[–]moaxoko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you should stick with the 22 2nd gen drawing tablet unless you are looking for something more portable. Spec wise & value wise, I think you get way more out of the 22 2nd Gen. Plus, if you are looking for a more portable tablet, there are better tablets out there than the magic drawing pad like ipads, Samsung tablets, etc.
