i could really realte to what a few people said here of course that is why we are here. I too was diagnoied later in life with bipolar II. I also had a mental break down one day and started to write all over my walls that there was something wrong and how i am a fixer. that was my problem was being a fixer and a care taker.. I would take care of everyone but me and i htink i did that because i knew that there was something wrong and i didnt want to face it head on. So it was just easier to focus on someone else, but as we all knwo we can only do that for so long. It has been 4 yrs and i just recenly found the rigjht combo of meds that keep me stable, so it does take a while but just hang in there and just as someone else said it will get eaiser to live with. I dont think that you ever are what we think is normal because we need meds to live on for the rest of our lives. And it takes us more to get through the day then other people, bujt i like to think taht we are just that more stronger.
