This, oh my god. I am a college student and like 3 people I've known have self diagnosed themselves bipolar but "dont need treatment, they just smoke weed, because it fixes everything". Every time this has happened they don't even really know the symptoms. It's just "sometimes I'm happy, but then sometimes I'm kind of sad." When I ask what medicines they've tried, looking for advice, they usually say "oh well I havent been diagnosed, but **** the mental health system, right?" .....right.
I know it's not a lot of people in the grand scheme of the universe but ******* it's awful. I kind of wonder if that's how the public sees people with bipolar and I get really embarrassed and sad.
