Daizee,

I'm sorry you feel so overwhelmed...it can be really tough to deal with all this.

Please try to find a pdoc who is experienced at treating bipolar disorder. It is easy to misdiagnose BP, so there are lots of folks who think they have many conditions when they just have one!

Bipolar is very treatable, but it takes the right combination of drugs and therapy to get back on track. Find a bipolar support group in your area (try the DBSA and NAMI websites--they have groups EVERYWHERE). And again, find a pdoc who knows what he\she is doing with bipolar (many don't).

Good luck, and please stay in touch...we care about how you're doing!
