Hi all,
My name is Ali. I'm 31 and have three little boys, including one with special needs. I have bipolar II and the severity has really come and gone at different times. It got bad during my 3rd pregnancy, so we are DONE with kids. I wanted to find a group of people online who "get it" because I feel like bipolar is a mental health issue that still has a lot of stigma around it (even though I "came out" about it on my blog, which is public).

I work from home and honestly, that's probably the best thing for me because I'm a freelancer (editor) and can control my hours. I think I would not be able to handle a FT job outside the house right now.

I'm only on lamictal but on 200-300 mg.
