I created this introduction thread due to the number of introductions posted on the "Bipolar Chat" sticky. The Bipolar Chat that I lead is now scheduled on Fridays at 9 PM EST. It will cover a variety of topics which will be posted in the chat announcement and outlines will also be posted for those unable to make the chats. The first Friday of the month Wingin'it will lead an open Bipolar Chat. Those will Bipolar are also invited to the Depression Chat on Wednesday at 9 PM EST, but there will be significant overlap in topic.

Thank you for the invitation to join. I'm a 46yr old mother with four sons, I'm waiting to be assessed for Bipolar Disorder. I assumed everybody was the way I was, it was a shock to me that I could be suffering from this illness, but to be honest, it does make so much sense. The highs, the lows, the nothing In between, irrational behaviours, rapid thoughts, etc etc.
I'm having great difficulties in managing the lows, the nothing in between. I would really appreciate how others out there manage. Thank you so much.
