I don't know anyone either except everyone on here. I'm pretty sure everyone who has BP keeps it to themselves.
I was diagnosed last November, but I had struggled for years with the symptoms before a friend finally suggested that I was probably BP.
I take my meds but still have to work at stability, but some of that is my C-PTSD too. Overall, I am doing way better than I was last fall.
Welcome to the club
