Hey there Mystictrue,
Welcome to the forum. I too am BP1. I know it's hard but you did the right thing in getting help and going on meds. Meds will help you and you will be able to function better once they have kicked in and found the right theraputic dose for you. I have only been diagnosised for 2 years and I am still coming to terms with it and dealing with the urge to be manic rather than depressed. But then worry I am getting out of control when I am manic. Its crazy but you will get there.
You do need a support network so your Psychiatrist and your fiance are a good place to start. What about a counsellor/therapist? Your parents/family? People need to know how to help you so that means you need to be honest and if your not feeling great tell someone. I can not stress that enough. I can't and I get myself into ruts because of that.
Rant away, chat away we are all here for you!
