Anxiety Depression Symptom, Bipolar Disorders

question for people who know or have bipolar disorder … sometimes you think you do not have?

I have been diagnosed by three psychiatrists separately with bipolar disorder and anxiety / panic disorder. I am with the same doctor, now that I've been seeing for about six years, was hard at first because, as he said "I am one of the most tried bipolar (bipolar I rapid thermal cycler) So anyway, not always aware of my mood swings, I know when I hit bottom when. My mom and dad are very supportive, Appts pay for my treatment and have dealt with all my shit for years the problem is that sometimes I'm thinking that it does not, of course, this is usually when my mom says "I think you are getting a manic episode, watch out!" (I have spent some time in the slammer, thanks to manic episodes) So this experience to anyone? I always take my medication, which is far (lithium, Depakote, Abilify, Lamitacal, Zoloft, Klonipin). Im doing well, but I think im ok and stop taking my meds and end up in jail again, or worse. Council?

in my 16 years daughter was diagnosed with bipolar affective disorder. as a family struggles that have gone are as real as the fear is. according to my daughter, who is manic feel good. of course she do not see what the rest of us see. when you feel as if their illness goes away by magic, (because the drugs are working!) to stop taking them and in one day or two to mania reappear and begin the process again. I, like your mom will never stop being that can be counted, even though she treats me as the enemy. I mean when oy idle always take the necessary steps so you can be well again. by not taking care of herself and after the doctors orders, not only calls into danger to herself, but waived his right to choose for itself, the only thing he hates most. nothing about this disease makes sense to me and to help be a better caregiver, I enrolled in a course offered by NAMI, the National Association for the mentally ill, called the family to family education program. was free and run by ordinary people who have had similar experiences with mental illness. was the best thing that could have done to both my daughter and myself. It gave me hope where once there were none. The most surprising thing that happened during the course of the class was that it was being occupied by a woman and her bipolar daughter. none of us could believe to our ears when, on the last day of class, told us her story. Our story started 6 years ago and I am pleased to report that my daughter is doing very well and has not fallen for more than two years. as we all bipolar people have good days and bad days. thank goodness I no longer panic when my girl gets the blues or just have a day exceptionally well. I've learned what to look and no longer make assumptions about their mood. I always worry and have been known to ask if she has taken his pills, but I learned it really is the only who can decide what his fate will ultimately be. all things to do, have a very important step to ask for advice and if I could say something meaningful to you in all that would I think is well on its way to "ok" you said in your question that always take their medicines. The last time my daughter fell ill had been taking his pills, but still got sick. its episode was caused by an event … the stress of the death of my girlfriend was too much for their management. that many factors can contribute to what your brain chemistry is up. so, take into account that being bipolar is not just about having a bunch of pills to be "normal", but it also means making good decisions about how you live your life.and always recognizing that we all have help from time to time. I hope I have been at least somewhat helpful for you my friend take care of yourself, be kind to you and remember that you are not only making ….. easy
