Hello people, my name is Haffidha I'm 24 and I have had the high side of bipolar at the start of 2014 which lasted for 6months! Which has turned my life upside down. I did some unusual things and wasn't aware of what was happening to me. Fell out with many friends and was living with housemates that picked up my unusual behaviour. The crying was weird.
Anyways, I fell into depression while on a work placement at University, while I was being bullied by my supervisor/mentor, end of 2013. My family stepped in and moved me back home early May 2014. I had to drop out of Uni and I have seen a Psychiatrist since. I have been on an anti-depressant and mood stabiliser but don't feel any change in my depressive mood tbh.
I use to be a carer for the elderly and people with mental health. My low moods make me super bitter and annoyed most of the times. I don't do much anymore, I use to be confident, bubbly and out-going. My condition has taken over me.
Hoping to make this my new outlet and go to place to understand how I could control this Bipolar. I want to learn ways I could help myself. Just hearing from people who may feel the same will help I think.
Thanks for reading, personal message me if anyone fancies a chat. Unless, your not allowed on this forum.
