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 setting this up Laura. Hello, my name is David and I am 18 years old. I am currently in Academy of Art University. I am studying to become a video game designer. I have been living with Bipolar Disorder all my life, and I just recently found out. I don't know everything about Bipolar Disorder, but I understand that there are mania stages and depression stages. I can remember as a kid showing the exact same signs as I do now, but worse because I didn't know how to control it very well. Now, I can control it enough so I don't totally flip out or harm myself. However, the emoitions are still there. I have tried looking for a psychotherapist, but had no luck finding one without having to go out of state yet. I hope this forum will help me until I find one.
