Hey everyone! I am a rapid cycler so that means I cycle between moods a lot and I have noticed that I spend relatively little time actually stable. Is this normal? Is there a normal with bipolars? I doubt it, so I guess I am wondering what all your experiences are. I stay stable only weeks at a time, 6 weeks if I am lucky and spend about two thirds of the year manic, mixed or depressed to varying degrees. Mixed episodes are most common for me unfortunately. Right now I am coming out of a mixed episode and feeling like I am going to stabilise (hopefully), or go manic. It is so frustrating living like this. I would so love to be stable more often.
