Hey everyone. I've been looking through and reading everyone's threads on this forum for quite awhile now. They've helped me some. I was always hesitant to make an account because I have severe anxiety even over the internet, lol.
I'm 24. People call me Cherry. I'm dealing with bipolar 1 schizoaffective, OCD, panic disorder, general anxiety, and a bit of PTSD. I was misdiagnosed with depression at like 16, but then had a breakdown resulting in psychosis and here I am now with all these lovely dx's. I've been in and out of hospitals quite a lot. I don't really leave my house or have much of a life now. I barely graduated high school a little while ago. If I feel comfortable I might try posting on here for advice or try to help if I can! I don't have as much experience as some, but still. Right now I'm not doing too great, which is why I decided to finally join. I have money and doctor issues so it's been hard getting anything fixed up lately. I haven't been full blown manic since July. I had been I guess at my "baseline" for awhile. But now I'm starting to feel it all coming down again. I'm extremely depressed and everything is going downhill. I'm trying to manage but nothing is helping. I try to stay distracted by watching tv or just sleeping all day. Anyways, that's me! lol |

Hi Cherry!
Welcome to PC and to the Bipolar forum. Many of us also feel a bit of anxiety over internet interactions. It can get easier with practice and with time. I am sure you have lots to offer! I hope you find the information and the support you may be seeking. Please make yourself at home on PC. I hope to see you around the forums!  WC

Welcome, Cherry. I know it's easy to be anxious, but there are many nice people on the boards here &, after all, it's anonymous so you don't have to worry about asking any questions you might have. There's no such thing as a stupid question..."Hey! Do monkeys fly out of my arse?" OK...That was a stupid question.

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