Hi there. Em, i need a little bit of insight into bi-polar. For a while now i
have suspected that i may suffer from it. However, although i may find
myself on the spectrum, i dont know what it actully takes to be accross
the line and enter bi-polar.
It would be good it anybody could give me some insight into their
experiences with it. I know i should go to a dr and what-have-you, but one
thing (and sorry if this offends) i fear is that ill be labeled and drugged up
for life. Now, i dont have anything against meds, i just had a bad
experience when i was on them and for that reason, fear being back on
them. I will add that i binge a lot and do take xanax regulary for anxiety,
so this may also be having effect on my moods.
But i need to find some sort of stability from somewhere. My therapist told
me she could be 99.9% sure im not. Which in one way came as a relief,
but, in another sence, it left me in the dark about my mood swings. I may
just be up and down a lot! But id like to hear of your experiences with
bi-polar if you'd like to share with me.
Thanks for reading

And replying, if you do!
