Hope that helps.
Were you diagnosed bipolar 1 or 2?

LOL Thanks for that. Bipolar 2, but under extreme stress I do get some of the Bipolar 1 symptoms. I've heard voices, and have seen things. So I'm going to my pdoc tomorrow and going to bring it up with him. We never really talk about the disease, just what's going on in my life at the time. This is the first time I've ever talked to people like me, and have identified things as apart of my disease. I've never linked up these feelings etc. before. It is very interesting and helpful. All this moving and triplets, and going to nursing school, and very wrong medications has made me a walking by product of the disease for 3 years. A never ending never stopping loop after loop of being in depression and mixed stats etc. It hasn't stopped.
