I am freaking out. I have bipolar and have been in treatment for about 6 years. My son is 15 and I have been trying to figure out what is going on with him. He is tiny...69 pounds as a freshman. Yesterday he was finally diagnosed with an eating disorder. I am completely overwhelmed. I am terrified for him, I feel guilt that my being bipolar contributed to this, and I am nervous that this will send me into an episode(didn't sleep last night). How am I suppose to deal with my son's mental illness when I can barely take care of my own?
