I have ADD (inattentive type) and PTSD symptoms from several things that have happened recently in addition to Bipolar II.
I guess I'm luckier than most because I'm very physically healthy. No allergies, never get sick, etc. Though my one minor chronic problem is hypotension, which has ended up being problematic with bipolar meds, since a lot of them can lower blood pressure and I don't have any room for it to drop below the normal 100/60 without getting dizzy and light-headed. I seem to have found a med that doesn't do that too badly, though, as long as I drink a cup of coffee and smoke some cigarettes with it, lol. My vices keep me conscious.
