I used to have a pretty good support system when I was at home, but since I moved to go to school all those people are a pretty long ways away and I feel like I'm drowning over here. In the past week I've basically started stocking up on candy and pop so I can sugar comatose myself when they are home and I'm in my room.

Should I talk to them about all this?
Leaving support systems and being around brand new people would be hard on anyone. I would not share that you are bi-polar as this will just cause isolation for you. Maybe look outside the living situation campus health center for advice.
