Hi Vortex, whereabouts in the UK are you? I am in Hertfordshire. I too was diagnosed with Bipolar II, hypomania with mixed states a few weeks back now. The support on here is fantastic, keep posting. Post me a private message too and we can perhaps share notes, swap stories that kind of thing.... keep your chin up, I know its hard I am feeling quite sorry for myself right now, good and bad days and trying to get used to new medication as well.

Look forward to chatting with you soon, take care
