I'm back after more sleep and some coffee. While bipolar 1 and 2 present different challenges, we do share a lot of common ground. Psychiatry visits, therapy, medication, certain symptoms, the stigma, etc. Support is good.
In comparison to the personality disorder boards, they are divided and each is quite slow. Additionally personality disorders are very different. I have a friend with antisocial personality disorder and his concerns are totally different from mine with borderline personality disorder.
I think if people with a specific type of bipolar want to have their own thread, that's great. Otherwise I really think we are all in this together. Much love to all bipolar types.
