It all started when I was very little im 15 now but I used to get violent with my pets when I was angry at them then the next second I would be hugging on them crying saying how sorry I am it was then my mom started to notice something wasn't right with me but at the time she was heavily into drugs like meth. I then started to hear voices in my head I told my mom about it and she knew something wasn't right. Well after that I was sent to a psychiatrist and diagnosed as possibly Bipolar I was then started on Abilify but it made me very sick being I was only 5 so I had to be taken off. After that the years kinda went on I had a very crummy traumatic childhood with rape, abuse, foster care and I kinda forgot about it with all I had on my plate I then tried to make myself a better person and became a nice person with a funny attitude I went about 3 years without any manic episodes I stopped hearing voices and got back to life. About two months ago I was hospitalized and I had my first manic episode in years at the hospital I was confirmed Bipolar. I am now back on Abilify and so far no negative side affects
