Bipolar 2 Disorder

[Always Unloved]

Anyone here with bipolar ?
I’m all alone with no support.
My family has nothing to do with me .
I’m depressed and lonely.

Several here have bipolar. It is a tough illness. We are very supportive here. Are you in UK? Europe? USA?

You seem to be effective in your life. You work, got a new home, have a relationship and children. I know not easy for you but you did it!!! I can only work. No relationship. No children. And I don’t have bipolar which is so hard. I have severe anxiety. Depression and PTSD.

I was recently diagnosed with Bipolar 2. I feel like for me, the "mania" manifests as anger and being on edge. It got much worse during menopause for me, which I think might be finally drawing to a close.

I was also diagnosed with Bipolar 2 (just another diagnosis to add to the pile). For me the hypomanic episodes are relatively rare, but feel amazing. There’s such a surge of energy and confidence and creativity, and I’ve done things during them that I never would‘ve had the cojones to do otherwise. But when I come down from them, it‘s a hell of a crash.

And the “mixed episodes” are among the worst things I’ve ever experienced; all the energy of a manic episode, with the thought patterns of a depressive one. The time I attempted suicide in my 20s was during what I now know to be one of those.

My hypomania is rarely pleasant, though my last one lasted a couple of months and was okay. But normally I'm fidgety, racing thoughts, disordered speech, irritableness, restless etc.

My therapist is talking to me about it. I hope you have found some support here?
Sending hugs.

I am wondering if it is contallable without medication. At the moment I don't think I can handle it anymore.
