Hello Everyone,

How long did it take you all to accept your bipolar diagnosis?

For me, it took me 1.5 years to accept it when I am mood stable (after a long term spent in therapy talking about it). A part of it was me thinking it was still just depressed since I haven't had a full maniac episode however I have had hypomaniac episodes since. Also when I am depressive or maniac, I tend to have this mindset where I hate being bipolar.
