Great story I read the full version.
Linda was dx the same way I was.
Both are docs thought we had depression
(and given antidepressants). After we had
a episode they figured out it was BP.
I'm shocked her doc did not figure the BP
soon. He treated her father and he had BP.
I have no shame and have admitted on threads
before, I feel like I lost myself (the old me)
to BP. I understand that some bp veterans
feel it has consumed them. I'm still fairly
new (less than 1 yr since dx) I'm missing
things I had like a good paying job.
I miss getting invited to events. I miss being
involved in social clubs. Now I
spend my days doing art therapy,
and I'm on a fixed income. A income
that will be running out.
