I don't know if any of you may resonate with this or not. I suffer from bi-polar. It was due to a drug overdose back in early 2002. Yet before then and ever since I can remember I have always been drawn to the mystical, metaphysical, paranormal and spiritual subjects. I believe in spirit guides and have communicated with mine via telepathy at all times. This can be done at any time; including dreams and meditation.
My question about it is have any of you bought it up with your dr's? How do you bring it up without it being pinned down to mental illness (voices in the head). For me it feels authentic and always has but it's not a subject I feel comfortable with explaining to my psychiatrist. I know I have experienced a kundalini awakening after the birth of my last baby. At the time my marriage was breaking down and eventually ended. So I was alone with three children. I believe I may have suffered mild baby blues. The land lord then decided to sell so moving home as a single parent with babies was major stress and it seemed inevitable that I would have an episode.

I don't believe that my spirituality and connection with my spirit guides effects my bi-polar. As in trigger it. But I doubt my dr would see it the way I do.

So to any of you. How have you talked to your dr about it if you also experience this type of communication with your spirit guides?

I also want to say that my spirit guides never tell me to harm myself or others. Never negative promptings or messages.
