Re: Do you know anyone with Bi-Polar Disorder?

My Dr told me I've had this since birth. My first suicide was at age 9. this depression and desperation followed me for 40 years . The euphoria is so seductive. But there is no end, just a continuous spiraling up until a person ends up in a hospital. If you are a psychiatric professional, you have seen these things, but only the one suffering from misfiring and absent chemical changes knows the ins and outs.

Sylvia was it you who mentioned being in a coma for several months? Perhaps it was another poster.

yes, that was me. But that had to do with other problems. However, the hospital overdosed my lithium and I had extreme seizures. My /dr said said my level was 399. I'm healthy noe. I still have BP lol Thank you for remembering.

Sylvia, why would you say that you can't come here anymore? I am sorry you had to go through so much.

I like your name {#emotions_dlg.thumbup1} There is a poster here that scares me. That's another one of my traits. I'm, at times, abnormally fearful.

Thank you again, Cattitude Smile
