Hello I'm new here. I was looking for some type of forum online and I'm glad I found this place. To summarize my situation. I've always had a problem with anxiety, depression and insomnia bc of the anxiety. I've been on a ton of meds that never really seemed to work. My new doc diagnos me with bipolar 2. And I really don't know what to make of that or how i feel. It makes me sad of course and I wish others would help me through it, but how can I ask for help when I don't know what to ask for exactly. Background: 16mom toddler, married to the most understand man in the world. Work full time. Just started back to work, was out on disability due to back surgery i had in December

I'm pretty new here too, but I'm finding it is a really supportive community, and people give really helpful feedback and advice. If you start a thread with questions people will get back to you with answers, so it's a good place to learn about what the diagnosis means and how to manage it. Welcome!

Hi, I agree with the comments above. I too have been here for a short while but I've been posting a lot. I find reading the threads really helpful. Sometimes I'll comment, other times I'll just read them. It is true, if you ask a question that tends towards being specific you are likely to get excellent feedback. This forum is just a piece of the pie. Your PDoc and therapists are very important. They can tell you how your meds interact and if you need adjustments. Finally, I enjoy the chat groups, sometimes they are a collection of members talking about everything, other times you can get real time help.
Welcome and good luck!

Welcome, rherrera21! I also have BP2, and I am here if you would like or vent about anything
 I'd be happy to recommend resources and suggestions if you have specific questions about BP2. I've gone through a pretty big range of books, websites, forums, and other resources since my diagnosis. Take care, and best of luck with everything!

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
