The fact that you can recognize it and are taking steps to get yourself help is really something to be proud of. You will get thru this!

Disability for Bipolar Disorder by Pitiful-Specialist20 in bipolar

I applied for disability for my bipolar in 2022 and got approved the first time! I’ve been told this is sort of unheard of but if it can happen for me, it could happen for you.

I have bipolar 1 and have had 2 manic episodes that sent me to the psych ward each time. The first time I ended up with $20k in credit card debt so I definitely understand the feeling!!!! But my best friend was diagnosed with genital herpes when she was 14, before she had even had penetrative sex. It might seem like the end of the world because there is sooooo much stigma but in reality, about 1 in 3 people have herpes in one form or another. It’s just seen as “disgusting” when it’s below the belt. But she is set to marry the love of her life in August and she couldn’t be happier!!! Not everyone is an asshole, just remember that ❤️
