Hello everyone. i saw the show on bi polar. i thought it was interesting that dr. phil said it takes 8-10 years for some to be diagnosed with bi polar. i tend to disagree. it took me 3 years only after all the anti depressants were causing me to go crazy. literlly. anyway. i dont think it showed bi polar in a good way. what do you all think. I would hurt my self before i hurt someone else. like that one person choking her kid. any way been depressed side of bi polar for a bit and cant seem to get out of it. went to dr. and gave me more of my anxiety drug. This winter sure has been a tough one this year. i am looking foward to summer. things seem to be alittle bit better then. hope you all are doing good.

Hi Blaze,
I didn't like it either. Having read the posts it seems as though there are a number of unhappy people out there about the show. I think 1%-2% of all bipolars go to that extreme. But, those few make it bad for anyone else.
The one thing I wonder...does Dr Phils staff read any of this? It seems as though everyone thinks these notices are going directly to him and I highly doubt that they are.

I am at cjdyer08@yahoo.com feel free to e-mail to me. I am listed here in the newer boards. I know how it feels to be down under and not able to pull yourself up above it all. And folks that do not understand say oh its okay it will pass. I hate that! I also get into moods like that for weeks. You want to help a bit I have a bit of advice for you. Get a grow light that acts like sunlight. if you sit with your face towards it closely for about 5 mins. a day with your lids closed naturally, it triggers a part of the brain for peacefulness. Its not 100% but it does help a bit. Thats why outside in the summer is so great you naturally absorbe vit.D onto your skin and it does exactly as I said of the store bought light!
