I was very manic when I was upgraded from bp2 to bp1 and I actually felt proud of it like I had won the Nobel peace prize Aye yay yay yay yay.

When I was diagnosed with bpd too two months ago, I felt a sense of relief. I knew some of my behaviors just couldn't only be bp related. And the more I read, the more I understood, like the pieces of a jigsaw puzzle fitting in.

One of my first signs of a mood change is interrupted sleep.

My only advice to you would be to educate yourself as much as possible about your diagnoses so that you learn more about yourself and gain a deeper level of understanding of your behaviors.

Be well.
