They said that you can live you life with bipolar and now know it and then a traumatic incident can bring this to the surface and make it more noticable. Here I am suffering from the death of my baby and now I am Bipolar II, because I am depressed and have some of the symptoms of bipolar II disorder? What a bonus for me!  |
I am so sorry to hear you are going through this. I do not have bipolar, but come to these forums for support because my adult daughter is suspected of having bipolar. However, I too have lost a baby - she was 7 months old when she died and I feel your heartache and pain. If we run into each other in a chat, I am pleased to talk with you and try to give you some support. Or feel free to message me separately. Hang in there... I know it's hard to imagine now but it will get better
