so im diagnosed Bipolar II, since being diagnosed last may I have been in treatment through the VA (being diagnosed ended my military career.) ive been on different meds, go to all my appointments, and do everything i can to try and manage to just get through each day. I have actually gotten worse since being in treatment, so much so that the VA raised my disability rating from 50% to 70%. I have read almost eveywhere that on average people who suffer bipolar II only have maybe 4 episodes of hypomania a year. I cycle almost like clock work about every 2 weeks and there is never a middle ground its always going from really High to really low. is this something abnormal? also more recently during my hypomanic episodes I have been experiencing auditory and visual hallucinations (for example I swear at least 10 times or more a day i hear the ringtone my mom has on her phone, or other odd noises but its always one of the same noises over and over.) (the visual hallucinations are not as severe as they could be, its like seeing a shadow move out of the corner of your eye) I dont know if the hallucinations are from the lack of sleep or the hypomania itself but it seems as if the hallucinations are beginning to occur much more frequently and i feel like im slowly losing it. What do i do and does anyone have a similar experience with this
