Hi, I'm having a mixed episode. Saw my pdoc last week, not new to my diagnosis (bipolar I), I'm strong. I know this will pass. But it's hell.

I'm wondering if I can "flip" this
into hypomania. Anyone know?

I'm aware that could turn into
mania or depression. I'm not in denial and I am not suicidal. But mania or depression would be better than this.

My last two voluntary hospitilizations didn't help me. My anxiety got worse and they didn't adjust my meds. And it was a big bill I can't afford as I'm disabled and on SSDI. I'm struggling to pay the last hospital bill.

Thanks for any suggestions and support.
