My mom is bipolar and she never takes accountability. She goes off and feels evil at times and then she is loving and it's a fucking roller coaster. And she drove us into poverty. I am bipolar but I take my meds.

Our 27 year old son is bp1...been manic twice but looking back he was manic more than twice. He went into psychosis in March after he went off lithium...he needs the meds. Right now he is ok...I hope. Thank you for sharing from a Mom who loves her son. I had thyroid cancer in 2012..had my thyroid removed...I have to take meds everyday or I will die. Threre is no difference. I am thankful for my sons meds and my meds!!!

That's a great quote! Thank you for sharing this!

Ty for making this and making me feel seen. Ive been diagnosed with ADHD with symptoms of depression & anxiety which I’m on medication for currently. I’ve suffered from substance induced psychosis twice eating magic mushroom chocolate bars and I’ve been trying to slowly accept that yes, that was me, and yes, some people saw me go through that. I scared a bunch of people and I feel so embarrassed about it. Your videos have helped me gain support and closure with what happened.

Medication saved my life and I advocate that everyone take it. We need it. Don't listen to other people who try and tell you that there is something wrong with you. Everyone has something and I do think we are some of the most compassionate and caring people out there just because we go through so much we have a lot of empathy. Friends can't always handle us and it's not always permanent it's both sides. We need to understand how badly we have them without blaming ourselves or the other person for wanting to get away. Making peace with Bipolar Disorder is hard. For example the person I'm talking about that left the comment he obviously cared about his friend a lot because otherwise why would he be so upset. Also I want to clarify he did not call the cops on his friend he got his friends family involved. People are people not everyone understands and we just have to make peace with that.

This is the problem with bipolar people. You don't see the difference between bad behaviour and bad personality. So you blame your bad behaviour on the victims to protect yourself. Shame based. Never taking accountability is what makes people "evil".

Hi!!! Did you actually watch the video? Are you saying you believe all bipolar people have fake symptoms? I love this comment it perfectly exemplifies the public's ignorant perception that Bipolar Disorder can be easily controlled and the lack of information surrounding Bipolar Psychosis. Are people with schitzophrenia evil too? Are they also not really hearing voices or seeing and believing things that aren't' real? Thank you for this comment to all my Bipolar family reading this, I know people with ideas like this hurt us, they likely have been hurt and are uneducated, Ignore them they are only pefect people inside their own minds. kzread.info/dash/bejne/gIys29afZs7MgLA.html

Diagnosed depression 1995. therapy meds etc. But my GP talked to me for a bit last month. He changed my diagnosis to BiPolar. Hope to learn and ask questions. Thank you for this. I grind my teeth too, I wear a mouth piece at night. But I realized I also grind my teeth at work. I've been on so many meds. It's a struggle daily, plus I have fibromyalgia.Nice combo eh?

Oh yeah lucky you.. Sometimes I think all the emotional trauma we face from bipolar manifests into all kinds of other physical illnesses.. And man 1994 it took them that long to figure it out...I need that mouth guard but they want so much money for it! I had my first psychotic episode in 1994. I thought it took me a long time to get diagnosed right! At least now you have the correct diagnosis.

Thank you for this video. I think I really needed to hear this. I’ve been feeling a lot like a burden to people around me and I often forget about my symptoms as I’m experiencing them. I think what also makes things hard is when people say that we are using our disability as an excuse. It can feel very trivializing. There are good things too. I also love music and that has been helping me.

My wife is 37 and was diagnosed 4 years ago with severe depression, PTSD, schizoaffective disorder and most recent Bipolar. She s been hospitalized 6 times. How long did it take before you were aware of your diagnoses and accept something was wrong? Thanks.

It took a long time but mostly because I kept getting misdiagnosed and given the wrong meds. I think it's confusing when doctors give you multiple diagnosis and especially when you are diagnosed so late. Because then you think it's just a stress related breakdown. I hope she gets better soon.

For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Ephesians 6:12 People are not evil, the demons within people are. Seek God and He will deliver from evil 🤍

Bipolar Disorder is a medical diagnosis it is a lot like diabetes. Do you believe if someone falls or gets cancer, or stubs thier foot that is the devil? Do you tell people with diabetes or down syndrome, or any other biological difference that they will be cured if they seek God. While I'm sure your intentions are good God is not a cure for bipolar disorder and those of us who have it were designed that way, we have done nothing bad to attract the devil. That notion is hurtful and rediculous. Not everyone believes like you and it is hurtful to use God as a weapon against others for not believing like you. Seek knowledge and you will be cured of this behavior.

@@BipolarPerson as a medical professional, I do believe that there are scientific explanations for everything and cures for most ailments through medication and other means. but as a spiritual person and believer in Christ, I do believe that God loves each of us dearly and is in control of all things. I believe that God has the power to rescue and deliver us and is faithful to do so if we ask Him and believe that He will. i would never weaponize God against anyone and only seek to show others that He is able and desires to do wonderful things for every single one of us, if we welcome Him in our lives to do so. i'm sorry that this message was lost in translation. i do hope that you find peace and healing and make the decision to believe in Him as i do. He is available to you as He is to me 🤍

I respect your beliefs but a lack of faith in a God is not a cause of mental illness. Bipolar disorder is a medical diagnosis that requires medication. With medication we are able to manage our illness and live beautiful lives. There is science behind bipolar disorder and the bipolar brain. God does not punish people by giving them mental illness. We are just all different and I respect your beliefs however I follow a different religion of "do no harm" which means I choose kindness over cruelty. For example...We live in a day and age where there are multiple food options people can choose to be kind or cruel. Animals are sentient beings like us and I choose not to harm them so I don't pay people to murder them when I can choose to be kind and eat from the fruits and grains of the earth. I think if you choose to be vegan you will avoid many health issues and your body will be a temple not a graveyard. I think love and kindness towards all is what is important.

I hope the medicine makes you live well. And your a good person! :D

Never met a good person who suffers from bipolar. KIND people sure but they cause devastation. Bipolar is a weird depressing version of the me-me-me's so it is impossible for these folks in relationships.

You shouldn’t have a pet dear, focus on you and your treatment . God bless!
