First, bipolar is a extremely tricky disorder and I read the part that you take pride in not taking medication. That's OK, but I want to reassure you that there is nothing wrong with working with a professional to find a medication that may help you control your symptoms. Its not cheating or a betrayal of your true self.

It's really helpful to find someone who shares the same struggles as I do. I am really thankful to you. And about that I don't take medicines due to my pride, that's not true at all. I just want to try to be on my own, I just want to try it out to be a bipolar with no medicines or therapy to handle over. Indeed, I don't think that taking medicines is considered to be a betrayal to my ownself, actually there is nothing wrong with taking medicines.

I went from high school dropout to being a decent student after getting held with my ADHD. Just something to consider.
I am really glad to hear that you got it all fixed. But my problem right now is that I am a decent student, but nowadays I just can't relate stuff together. I can't relate topics to each other. And what I hate the most is that nobody knows about my sickness so when my grades get suddenly low, everyone gives me that shameful look, thinking that I am not working my best.

Lastly, you gotta get that insomnia under control! I've found it next to impossible to study or do HW fatigued.
I am actually working for it..

Oh yeah, schools usually offer help for students with disorders by accommodating assignments and tests to specific needs. You might wanna check that out too.
Sorry for the long response. I wish you the best and you are not alone!!!!!!!
I wanna try being a normal person and as I mentioned above, nobody knows about it and I prefer keeping it hidden.
And Thanks A lot for your response, it made me feel way more better. Thank You and hope the best for you!!
