Quote From: snbstmomI have Bi-polar disorder. I have had it for a few years now. Due to having a baby a year ago and some major medicine changes. I spent most of last year 2005 in one mental institution or another. I believe I have been in all our psych centers in Montana. I have since been in treatment 3 months successfully. I just wanted to say I understand what you all are saying. The stereotypes, the bad hype, etc. I can honestly tell you it is horrible living with Bi-polar. The ups and downs are very hard on my family. But I can also tell ya that Bi-polar can be made to be in "remission". If you take the proper meds for you, and seek counseling often, and see a psyciatrist you CAN live sucessfully with this diesiese. Most people would never know I have it unless I tell them. I have seen both sides of this diesiese and if you are seeking support please email me at countrymom94@yahoo.com I understand either way.
sounds like you have come along way. Not everyone is at that point. But happy for you that you are. its great your lending your support.
