I was recently diagnosed with Bipolar, and would love to hear from you.
I am now on five medicines and none are helping me sleep.
I go to group therapy once a week, and even that get's on my nerves.
People can be so annoying, but my most concern is the fact I can't go outside except for Monday's when I have group.
I am scared to death to go outside.
I'm scared to drive or make friends, So I love this site this way I can vent and read everyone's blogs and maybe learn something.
If anyone has Bipolar or a family member with it please give me some advice on medicines and if it ever gets better?
Because right now I'm at a low and I want to feel better.
Thanks Chat with everyone Soon.

Hi!
I just wanted to come by here and say that everything will get better! You just have to find something that can distract you and make you feel happier, and I really hope that this is it! I have been through a few low's myself but as of recent I think my lows are getting higher wherein I am not so much down in the dumps. I can't give you any advice on medication as I do not take any but you should speak to your specialist and see what he has to say. I can say that B Complex Vitamins are supposed to be very good at helping with moods. Thiamin and Selenium are two of those vitamins. Do you have anyone else that can support you other then that group?
Hope you feel better soon! Welcome to mylot, and have a wonderful time here!
