You are 30, I am 56. Yes, it has gotten worse.
I have three healthy kids (28,25,22) and have been married 30 years.
I was off meds during my pregnancies. I did a lot of crying but no IP. I hated being pregnant but I did breastfeed for six months each baby (is that TMI?) and then went back on meds.
Being hypomanic was sort of good. I was SUPER mom. My husband picked up the slack when I was depressed.
Make sure you have a good partner if you decide to have kids.
I don't have much mania now but I do have serious depressive spells.
Hope this helped. Ask me anything else that will help.
