Thanks for sharing your stories! Please also share what helps you manage it so you can live better with less ups&downs...
Every human has multiple disorders. Children have them, and the older you are; the more disorders you (may) have. It's "natural" to have disorders, we all live in a world, and most of us in a society where the state of mind gives you disorders. We aren't build to do so many "normal" everyday things, we develop disorders...
Personally, as I can tell, I would have about 30-35 disorders. And most people of my age (25- 30) will have that same amount of disorders.
Please please please either edit your video or make a note in the description... you have given irresponsible and dangerous information. BIPOLAR DISORDER CANNOT BE TREATED WITHOUT MEDICATION. People ruin their lives, and people die because of this. I have commented below with a longer description. I cannot emphasize this enough.
ADHD is a myth created my pharmaceutical companies to make money off of kids who dont like being crammed in a classroom all day. I was diagnosed with ADHD and the medicines withdrawl symptoms were worse than the actual "condition".
Notice when it shows the witch doctor banishing his people is white. Like wow
I've always been talkative so talking about what I feel means the diagnosis was easy to arrive to and treatment can start early. I was actually misdiagnosed with depression but fortunately a correction was made and I recovered very well ever since. My coping mechanism was to have a very close and trusted friend, one who doesn't judge or criticize but will set aside time regardless whether they're busy or tired to listen to my worries and thoughts and offer comfort when relapse symptoms occur. Being truthful to yourself and admitting that you are mentally ill can be very challenging but you're not crazy, and people will never know unless you tell them, so be careful to let only the trusted people know about your condition and don't be ashamed that you're bipolar because you're still a human with value, just sick and need treatment just like any other illness.

I lost my best friend last month because of bipolar disorder
He suffered for about 5 years and then he decided to take care of it..
As he always used to say ,
"When I die my atoms will spread in the universe, I will be everywhere" .
Alex Husien im so sorry... i lost one of my closest friends about 4 months ago for the same reason. it is so hard, but for me it helps to know she isn’t suffering anymore....take care, wishing you the best
Alex Husien I’m sorry for your loss. :( 🧡🧡
I'm so sorry, I have a best friend who has bipolar disorder and I've seen how rough it can be, there was a point where she was drinking ibuprofen to deal with the pain and it's definitely not a easy thing to deal with
I'm really sorry for your loss. When a friend of mine passes that way, I say that they lost their brave fight against their disease, like you would say someone lost their fight with cancer. It's no different; both were murdered by an illness.
I'm really sorry for your loss, it seems that we're all in the same situation here... Best friends dying because of a disorder, stay strong guys..
I'm changing "one night stand" to "copulation with strangers" in my vocabulary from today
Mohanpreet Singh yes
"One night stand" is designed to be minimizing and sounds like an innocent lapse. "Copulation with strangers" sounds like an intentional act of disgrace.
Sounds sluttier
Lol. Sounds so much better. Hey I used to be Sikh. My name is Sara now but once upon a time it was Saraswati.
Sara Melito lol so? U looking for copulation with a stranger?
"Have you ever suffered of bipolar disorder?"
Dude, if you have it, you don't get rid of it.
Young Adults May Outgrow Bipolar Disorder. ... With symptoms often starting in early adulthood, bipolar disorder has been thought of traditionally as a lifelong disorder. Now, researchers have found evidence that nearly half of those diagnosed between the ages of 18 and 25 may outgrow the disorder by the time they reach 30
Apparently you just might
I had it. Then got new habits like meditating, exercise and reading, sleeping earlier. Then I abandoned all those habits because of lack of time because of school and work, and I have the disorder again. Is not as strong as it was before tho, so I think I can sort of control it now (at least I can manage it better)
That the truth. Bipolar can not be cured. And more Ssi/ssd judges need to know this!
Ren van Heerden "ages of 18 and 25 may outgrow the disorder by 30"
As is mine, I very recently got diagnosed and I'm going to try my first batch of medication near my birthday though
Honestly in my opinion as someone who has bipolar disorder. It's like having no control over your mood and emotions. One moment you can conquer the word and the other moment you can't move off your bed cause your so suicidal. It tends to affect every aspect of your life. Like school one moment you want to study and ace a test but when you get down your all f**k it all doesn't matter if I fail. And this is just me speaking but my mood can change so quickly.. I could have the best day ever and one bad thought or action can make me feel awful and self hate.. and you kinda just have to deal with it. You know those shows where theres a devil and an angel on your shoulder it's kinda like that but just the devil is telling you, your an awful person and your not worth anything and the angel is trying to convince you that your not.. it's basically an internal war with yourself.
Mosiah 123 so true! I have BP2 with rapid cycling and I can be intense and focused all day and BAM I’m down.
great way of describing it, luckily (or sometimes unlucky) for me it not something that can change mid day. I will be in a manic or depressive phase for a few weeks usually before it changes. it makes it easier for me to combat tho because if I am having a depressive phase I know to force myself to go to the gym or clean the house so I can tell myself I did something or when im in a manic phase I can be more aware of it and calm myself down if im getting myself too hyper.
Sorry bro, I hope u can get better one day
@Mosiah 123 Yep, I feel you man. I've been down some dark roads with my struggle. I suppose EVERYONE has struggles, but honestly, it doesn't matter as much what we go through. It's more important how we deal with what we go through. The challenge is that bipolar disorder makes dealing with anything extremely challenging. So yeah, I get you.
@Stone Wallman I came VERY close once but that's it. Otherwise, no, it's not something I would ever do anymore. But those thoughts still come to my mind. I do my best to ignore them and move past them cuz yeah, I'm never going to take that step. Yet, uncontrollably the desire still comes at times. I don't have complete control of feelings like that, but I do have control over my actions. But as you said, everyone is different and yeah, it's just hard.
"Just go see a therapist" as if I had that kind of money :(
Omar Carrillo Check out what therapists near you are covered by your insurance. If they diagnose you with something they want to treat (therapy, meds, etc) they'll have insurance cover it
@@CelinaYTChannel most insurance only covers 6 visits. And that's assuming they have insurance.
if u still go school, u can talk to the counsellor i'm pretty sure. but u can try therapists that like ask u to pay based on what u earn or smth like that
Same problem here,, I'm just trying to cope with all I'm going through.
Even through my worst depression episode, it was so bad that I hate to even think about those times,, but I'm glad that I drew and wrote poems to express what I'm going through.
You never know what would help you, its hard, but you are a warrior for living day by day
Idk how old you are but most colleges Offer free counseling
Prayers to people living with this disorder 🙏🏿
THEIR FAMILIES SUFFER TOO,,MORE
Its kinda a pain from what my parents say i can throw a whole episode then not even 10 sec later come back and act like nothing happen
🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Ricochet Rose Tarot Thank you
Living with bipolar disorder, I can say my relationships have always been affected the most. It's been hard to keep friends and even harder to keep intimate relationships. You think everything is fine with everyone and then the next second you're questioning when they'll leave. You start manifesting these thoughts that arent normal and extremely paranoid.
Ryt and the sad part is we are choosing a partner who think we are physco in really we just need their help to understand us😓😓
@@parminderkaur3434 makes me feel better knowing I'm not the only one
yessir
I kinda lost all my friends due bipolar type II. Then trying to reach out to people i knew, and turns out it was 10 years ago when last time seen them lol..
Spend at least 1 hour a day in a park or forest to stabilize. The negative ions of the earth stabilize each of us. Shut off WiFi at night and eat vegetables to avoid America’s number one problem: mineral deficiency. Barefoot in park is best.
Lived with Bi-polar disorder for years and I'm telling you the depression can last so long, you literally are desperate for the high to come back and the highs can feel like you're on drugs. I kid you not that doctor's drug tested me just to figure out what was wrong with me. I was so happy but more than happy, like euphoric and high. I have the time of my life sometimes and once I realize I'm the only one enjoying myself, the depression hits and I regret everything I did will in mania.
I'm so sorry for what you've gone through. Your comment gave me some hope though. My husband is going through a manic phase and is acting so out of character and it hurts. I'm keeping faith the real him will come back to me someday though, and that his actions now aren't what he really wants.
I can totally relate. I felt like the only one until I read this. Hope all is well.
Me too. I'm coming down from mania and full of regret for things I said and done.
Being manic feels so high so metimes . Like literal heaven. Scary...
Burh so true n related too, we only want the highs n nothing else, thats the sad part
"just go and see a doctor" easy to say when you're not living in a third world and/or a developing country.
Gail Tuazon oh well?
Easy to say when you're an American with health care and not an American making minimum wage...
Or the US
That's why health care is one of the most important things you can invest in
Gail Tuazon right
Depression is more numbness than sadness for everyone that doesnt know
Literally seeing the world darker like a filter through your eyes..
@@gaz1320 Actually true. Though sadness can definitely be involved but if someone isn't getting help, numbness comes in.
For me long period of sadness then anger, then numbness.
Nice to know I'm not depressed now... Just sad all the time and suicidal
Not necessarily. It's different for each person, mine is more of a sadness than a numbness, so please don't go around policing how people should experience depression.
My bipolar disorder has demolished so many relationships over the years, especially with my family. Being bipolar makes it 10x harder to have steady or healthy relationships.
Awww ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I get really depressed, really easy. When I get like that, I don't like talking about my problems or why I am depressed. I like being alone in those times. I don't want to hurt anyone's feelings, but that day could've started out terrific. I could've been having the time on my life and then I just get depressed out of nowhere. It hurts, but when I get like that, I don't want to fix it, I want to lay there and cry.
Update (09.16.2022): i tend to panic, freak out, and feel down or depressed the moment i wake up, it follows me to sleep. I feel like over time, something is strangling me and i can breathe less and less. Voices at times, my thoughts are no longer quiet. I just want to quit feeling, but i want to live. I cant cry anymore. Just a few tears.

@@da14a49 Perhaps
Same, on and off for 6 years. I do think it’s better to speak to someone about it. It’s taken me a long time to open up about struggles bc I was usually the strong one helping others, but everyone needs help sometimes. Doesn’t mean you’re any lesser or weak
This is serious people, I have it and it is driving me crazy, turning my family/friends away, and ultimately destroying my life.
Reeeeee!!! what
would you like to talk about it, my friends has it and she finds talking about it helps a lot
I know how u feel
I have bipolar 1
Same man, I cant be real around people cause they get depressed when my real colors show
as someone with bipolar, this hurts how accurate this is

I don't have a bipolar disorder but I do suffer from a mental disability but I try to not let that bother me as much. I hate it when some people tell me that it's not a big deal that I should learn to "get over it". They don't always know where I'm coming from plain and simple. I do suffer from Anxiety and sometimes depression that I take pills for treating it. It's caused by my traumatic experience in school I just hope to graduate this June to get my diploma once and for all.
Its something that you will continue to hear people say thought your life but I can tell you that you can change peoples mind on the topic. My grandfather used to tell me the same thing and it took a while but I eventually was able to make him understand my conditions. Its hard for someone who doesn't suffer from mental illness to understand what someone who does is going through. Best of luck to you getting your diploma.
Agreed because my family members are always saying get over it
@@jimmiet1988 Well my mom understands but my dad not necessarily but I'll keep my fingers crossed.
I watched this because it looked interesting
Eh kinda
Hey man I have ptsd and bi polar disorder I’ve missed 2 years of school to diagnosis this I am working on my own diploma I have 2 years to go we both can do this

comments like this are empowering thank you
My mom has bipolar disorder, and my bipolar surfaced when I was around 8 years old (when my parents had a very traumatic split). I started having fits of rage, depression, and suddenly after weeks of feeling like that I would be fine. It's be like a break from the mood swings, and then I'd go into a manic episode. I remember first getting into "risky"
behavior when I was 12. I ended up attempting suicide when I was 13, and then again when I was 16. When my therapist diagnosed me with Bipolar Disorder it finally all made sense. Every day is a challenge, but I find that educating the ones I love and that are close to me about my mental illness, it's easier to get through my episodes when I have their help. Medications don't work anymore for me personally, but talking to my therapist about ways to cope and learning of things that can prevent my episodes has done amazing things. There is hope. I never believed that. I even just got through another depressive episode last week. If you're suffering with Bipolar Disorder, please seek medical help, and find hobbies that calm you. Trust me.
my mom has it too and our lives are miserable plus we're kinda poor living in South Africa, i can't blame her all i can do is stand by her as much as it hurts and embarrassing she is my mom and she didn't choose this disorder. I'm sorry for your suffering you are not alone
Sadly this reminds me so much of how I grew up. People always get surprised when I say my first suicide attempt was in 1st grade (I already had a predisposition because of my parents illnesses but also lots of trauma probably triggered it). I’ve had 4 attempts that I can remember. I have both bpd and bipolar, not sure if it’s 1 or 2 because I just got that added to my diagnostics. I was labeled as pre bipolar when I was 13 and I’m almost 20 now and yup it was bipolar the whole time. Medications don’t work for me either but I have never tried bipolar meds so I want to try them at least once. I realized DBT has been helping with understanding how to think “normally”. I feel like I will never be able to live a completely normal life because I’m too scared to join anything w/ the fear of quitting when I hit a low. I also believe there is hope though. I know I have so much to give and I’ve been getting better at recovering from the shorter episodes. I internalize all of my stuff so my friends and family only really get affected by my lack of consistency in talking/hanging out. I hate it because I feel like I could be doing so much more with my life rn if it wasn’t a barrier.
even mood stabilizers?
@@franciswyvern I did take a mood stabilizer, but I kept forgetting to take it, and then I wouldn’t cause I didn’t want to, and then the risks of that cycle with the specific medication was a lot
@@biggirlbites6824 ahh I understand, those meds are definitely rough. Great to find the one that works but it's a rough trek to find that one. My wife had similar issues as you did to find that one that worked. She had to research and suggest it to her doctor herself, but has been on it for a while since. Think that there are options too for different ways to get administered. Just food for thought on the trek for your mental health to look into.
Before I was diagnosed as bipolar and given medication, . I was angry or sad at any given moment.
some times I was a bomb and anything could trigger me to anger, When I was depressed I'd sleep alot, not wanting face life. I was rarely manic, but when I was in a manic mood, I'd would feel like I was drugged and would feel like I could face anything.
Now a days I feel alot better, I get depressed once in awhile. I always talk to my mom when I feel down, she always helps me with my depression. I always feel calmer after we talk. We vent out our frustration to each other, shes my bestfriend.
Wow this is me as well. I've lost jobs because of this.

I developed bipolar disorder when I was 15 due to trauma, so I can tell the difference between regular depression and bipolar depression, and I tell you: the darkness during the bipolar one is very different than the regular one, but it's something you need to experience to understand. The difference isn't something that can be taught, it's just simply there.

This was powerful to read.❤
It’s like having a demon that just won’t leave you alone
It most likely is a demon. Everything is spiritual. God bless💕 please call upon the Lord
Being bipolar isn’t scary once you’ve accepted it. The only scary part is trying to explain to other people who think you just have mood swings and they think they can “handle it”. But it’s more than that and that’s the scary part about it. It really challenges a person, making it hard to keep relationships. It’s even harder when your a stubborn person like myself and don’t wanna talk about it which just makes having relationships even harder. I’m my own problem 🤷🏾♀️ lol.
Not everyone is capable of accepting it. By the time my father passed, he had decided that he had "just" unipolar depression. I do NOT want to minimize depression; I think he perceived that there was more stigma attached to bipolar, even if it was only in his own mind. I don't know if it's always stubborn denial with bipolar, though. For example, I have known a lot of people who have schizophrenia. I only know one who consistently admits it. Everyone else that I'm close with, if they were diagnosed with schizophrenia, doesn't really believe it. But that's a known thing with that disorder. It's not just them being thick headed - the illness itself makes it impossible for them to see it! Again, I don't know if it's a factor in bipolar. IIRC, I was able to accept my diagnosis fully when I started getting proper care.
Close knit group of friends or a supportive family member, and especially your therapist**
After all, we all need to hear that we arent crazy once in awhile, but some just need that tiny bit of extra reassurance.
My girlfriend and mother of my son has stuck with me for 10 years, she even asked if I was bi polar before I got diagnosed,
I mean, at
Least you know its your own problem. Dk why people always blame it on a “disorder” or someone or something when its just them
Hey i relate to the second part of your comment. Just want to say there is NOTHING wrong with reaching out, not a weakness a strength. No one is solitary, we evolved to rely on each other and wouldn't exist otherwise.
Much love ❤
i have bipolar 2 im mostly depressed its hard for
me to keep a job and i have crippling anxiety so i go to school online it effects everyone around me ive lost all my friends because of it im just so t i r e d
I know someone in high school who is bi polar.
Same for me... I became online schooled this year and lost all my friends. I only leave my house for my 2 jobs... my dad cant work in the winter and I always snap at him for no reason...
I am also bipolar 2. I have been on medication and seeing a therapist for it about 7 years now. It's the only thing that has kept me going. If you haven't already I would suggest seeing a therapist or find a support group. I thought I could deal with it alone but I couldn't. Once they put me in the right meds it made me realize how far down I was before. Now I can manage my life so much easier and I'm alot less stressed. My depression periods are only a couple of days and not month like they once were.
SAME. It gets better though! 💙
I’m always in low but I’ve experienced shifts of highs for very short amount of time and it’ll be on and for a few days until I crash back down again
PSA: Depression can manifest in many different ways. Overwhelming guilt is a common one, but it's not talked about often.
I've suffered with this all my life. I'm a people pleaser. I have multiple sclerosis and a host of illnesses that came with it. I have had many 1 night stands or reckless copulation with many people depending on the mood. 1 day I have so many plans to excercise, meditate ,bake but then I just feel meh and put it off. Like for Halloween, I baked cookies but it took me almost 2 weeks to feel in the mood to ice them which I did yesterday, the eve of Halloween. I was a surge of energy and excitement. Now my high is drifting down.. I'm on Xanor and Cymgen .i had Epitec but it gave me Steven Johnson syndrome and I have scars now and that makes me feel worse. Even with Therapy and meds I really am not coping
This was pretty dead on. I especially related to the part about being social one day then wanting to isolate and not do anything for several days on out. I sometimes feel like the sad clown who has to wear a happy mask in public but who takes off the mask as soon as he or she gets home.

A real thing i have read
I can relate
I too feel extremely social sometimes, then something changes and I literally cannot anymore, and that triggers the anxiety. I really have no idea what causes it
*Ad pops up in middle of video* Me: Well their goes my Anxiety levels.
There*
I have an Anxiety to which is not to joke about and that makes me suffer: Is my friends secretly hating on me? Like when I go to school and I go to my classroom, I just totally sweat when I see someone looking at me in just a fraction of a second. My best friend Joachim ignores me now since October 9, 2019 due to me having anger issues to him, which adds to my anxiety.
I have DID, and it’s very difficult to live with, especially when I get triggered or my personalities get triggered. -Ally
The extreme fluctuations of emotions, within a day as you described, is actually called hyper mania. I have this part of bipolar disorder, which goes along with my borderline personality disorder. Hyper mania is when your emotions fluctuate extremely. For example, I can literally go from happy, to feeling superior, to angry, to severely depressed within hours. This comes with extreme danger. People like me often act on these moods, then immediately switch. We act out impulsively. Impulsivity is a huge factor in bipolar disorder and borderline personality disorder
It's actually called rapid cycling - not "hyper mania". Hyper mania doesn't exist. *Hypo*mania describes the sustained boost of energy and confidence experienced by sufferers of bipolar type 2. A "hyper" mania, or severe mania, is aptly referred to as psychotic mania, and is the defining feature of bipolar type 1.
My sister was recently diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder a couple of weeks ago. From one moment she would feel like she could rule the world. The next..she felt suicidal and hopeless, not even wanting to get out of bed. She also has Generalized Anxiety Disorder and ADHD. She now is on a plan in school for it. She is now on Prozac to help with her conditions, but I'm still worried for her. She is an amazing human being, but some people can't see that. I'm trying to be there for her to the best of my ability.
I have panic attacks daily. I have never said anything to my family except my sister. I feel bad for bringing it up since my sister is going through so much that it makes me feel like I'm just causing more problems than my family needs. I constantly get anxious and shake uncontrollably while forced into social situations.
She thought she was depressed for a long while. Seeing her go through all this is making me really, really sad and anxious for her future. I've never been the best with comforting people emotionally, but I'm trying. Is there anything I could do to possibly lift some weight from her shoulders?
Hey It's George listen to her; have her be open. Encourage her to do things to get distracted. Keep supporting her. You both can help each other. Mental illness is not the same as being crazy.
John Wick I hope she makes it and you ♥️
I got the Same as her
i hope that you guys are doing well man!
I saw this post and I hope your sister is doing better. Her doctors need to explore mood stabilizers because just plain antidepressants can make things far worse.
My mother have this, she cannot stop her medication or her dark side will emerge. Its like living with 2 different person.
TheRagez11 I totally feel you, my dad is like 2 different people; either your best friend or worst enemy.
Me and my mom are like that and that's how poeple describe us
If you have a wife be sure shes going to be 2 people
Since a hard head strike last November I have been DESTROYED. I have a wife and 3 kids. I can barely function with these mood swings and it has destroyed almost every aspect of my life. I hope everyone who sees this has an AMAZING DAY.
My mom was depressed very sevearly when she was around 12 she never knew she was. My mood has lately been slowly changing and now I'm extremely anti social at home and stay in my room. I have horrible relationships with my family and usually always start an argument. I'm randomly annoyed too, and then in a second I can just be perfectly fine.
PLEASE do one on borderline personality disorder!

Are you ok now?
This video has so much filler and unrelated info
Agree. It was never mentioned about the aggressive side of the moods swing
gotta cross the 10 minutes mark i guess
still had info
Not everyone just wants to hear about just one wimpy disorder
Welcome to the infographics show
i get mood swings daily, i can go to work/school and feel so energetic, happy, grateful, and sometimes after a while i get sad, moody, depressed and had suicidal thoughts . ive always told myself this is who i am. i know im bipolar and its hard to cope with when your scared to tell people. but sometimes i can still be the center of attention speaking whatever.
i dont know what to say to others that feel the same, but most importantly its just a sign that we are more special then the rest and we really should be the ones taking care of each other.
i love the light being shed on mental illness! I would really love to see a segment done on Borderline personality disorder, seeing as its becoming more widespread in the last few years
My daughter is bipolar, with mania. It's very rough to deal with as a parent. Especially when they use it as an excuse for their actions.
Bless your heart and keep up the great work! Parenting is no easy task, not to mention when you have to work with and support a child through any illness or disorder.
I have bipolar and want to be a peer support specialist, specifically to help comfort and educate families and caregivers of those with mental illness. I wish you all the best.
I wish you lots of patience and understanding!
Instead of seeing everything as an excuse, try to see where she is coming from. You’d be surprised what you let go past you..
If it's hard for you, you need to consider how hard it is for her. My guardian did not take my anxiety and bipolar seriously, now we no longer talk because i felt so misunderstood from someone who chose to think I was always making "excuses".
walking 20 minutes a day changed my life. i highly recommend it.
congrats brother

I started a body toning class a month ago and I feel like I has boost my mood so much. I would highly recommend it as well
How exactly?
Mentique Bakabila It helps with anxiety, and can keep you from having a panic attack. People walk for other reasons too, this is just me
I love how they're all smiling like 'yeah, lobotomy"
Infographics if I could hug you guys I would. It takes courage to address things that are still attached to a stigma. We talk about it more these days, but it's still not enough. Thank you for using your platform to bring awareness and comfort. I look at all these beautiful comments, and I see how people who don't know each other are comforting one another and it moves me to tears bc this is what we need for growth. We need each other's unbiased support. I just want to say to your team and those in the comment section thank you 🤗🤗🤗
The worst is doctors dont really know how to diagnose bipilar disorder. Like many, i was wrongly diagnosed with Major Depressive Disorder and given meds for depression. Depression meds DONT treat the symptoms of bipolar even though the symptoms are so alike.
I hear you and that's sadly common. The average time before bipolar gets properly diagnosed is ten years. Took me that long. And boy, was I angry when I was only on Prozac.
@@CandyHatsuneWolff I was "lucky". took 5 years (wrongly diagnosed at 16) of being on zolof until I was finally put on a proper mood stabilizer (lithium) which has worked fairly well
SAAAAME THING HAPPENED TO ME
EXACTLY. happened to a couple of my friends as well, both for BPD and other similar mood disorders. the medical industry is bad right now and that only makes the whole process rushed + worse :///
Me too but now but i'm bipolar the med for ddm didn't work either.
Whenever they said "black dog" I thought of Sirius Black
One of favorite characters in the Harry Potter series.
two feet of snow same lol
my fave character
It was a cute boxer! I wanted to give it hugs 😍
I thought of the song by Led Zeppelin.
I was diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder 3 years ago, and I thought I would never overcome it or feel normal, but I did. It wasn't always easy but I continued to fight and reminded myself that sometimes I would take two steps forward and one step back until someday I would be okay.
I Live To Inspire Mental Health This makes me feel better. I keep telling myself it’s possible to overcome it.
THANK YOU! this video made me cry with nice tears. It explains that we are more connected than we know. Beautiful 🖖

I have bipolar 1 and bulimia, which do not mix well together at all. When I'm in my manic state, I'll spend so much money on food, eat all of it, purge it and feel horrible a couple days after and starve myself.
I feel you... I’m not self-diagnosing or anything but I feel you.. a lot..
Dang i wont sleep well to night
Hang in there. I hope you have or are at least considering seeking help in any form possible. Positive help. I have never had bipolar disorder, but I have had bulimia and suffer from generalized anxiety. The fear of gaining the weight once I binged was terrifying and I would go to great lengths to hide both my binging and purging. I'm older now and have since recovered from the worst aspects of bulimia, but I never would wish it on my worst enemy.
This is also my life 😟
I lost like 10 pounds during my psychosis. I'm not great at putting on weight, so it definitely wasn't healthy for my mind or my body.
For about a year I had great euphoria for a few hours in the early morning then followed by feeling normal. I was always wishing I had written down my feelings afterward. It all came about after getting out of a toxic relationship ship. It was amazing, but I’m glad its all gone away.
See I am diagnosed and have seen multiple doctors and counselors, but this video still amazed me because of the accuracy and the description because I felt that no one understood me
I just blame hormones for my mood swings, being a teenager and all
That's also very likely the cause. But if you feel like something is more wrong, keep track of your symptoms.
lol i normally sleep too much
Well, Teenagers can get anxiety, bipolar disorder, depression etc. too.
that's exactly what I do but I had to go check TH-cam now because it's getting too bad
Yes I do too. People tend to self diagnose nowadays
i just started seeing a counsellor 2 months ago and we’re checking out my severe depression and anxiety and now starting to check for bi polar
GREAT episode!!!
people can never understand what you are going through
Yes, a lot of people don't get it. But if you find peers, other people with experiences similar to yours, you might not feel so alone. Myself, I'm really grateful for my bipolar brothers and sisters.
@@CandyHatsuneWolff its really hard to find someone like yourself
@@CandyHatsuneWolff when were you diagnosed, did it explain a Lot of your past? Im Just asking
When were you diagnosed
@@rlybaddude737 It's been over 10 years now. It also took that long to get a proper and complete diagnosis though. That's very common for bipolar.
I took a while to fully come around to my diagnosis, which is also pretty common. It mostly didn't click for me because I was in the thick of it, and I was too bonkers to manage to take meds properly on my own (wasn't prescribed with the right stuff yet anyway, yet another common issue.)
Once I accepted it, oh yes, it explained a LOT about me, and even more about my family. My dad and his mom were textbook. Sadly, my dad passed insisting he "only" had depression. I don't mean that major depression is any less serious or devastating - it's not. But to Dad, it was all he could admit to.
Anyway, yes, sometimes I still have trouble identifying what is *me,* my personality, and what is my illness, bipolar. For instance, I think there is a unique bipolar sense of humor that makes me laugh every time but sometimes confuses or disturbs others. I think the genius of people like Robin Williams and Jim Carrey is that they made this humor accessible and funny to everyone. Wish I could do that!
I have rapid cycling Bipolar type 1.
More than anything my experience has been characterized by frequent periods of mania, extreme confidence and recklessness, and less frequently by crashes after those manic episodes. I also have anxiety which shows up more when I am stressed but being anxious during a manic episode just puts you on high alert, like anything and everything is at risk of going wrong. I was addicted to feeling manic and for about several really started giving in to more and more of my impulses until I was basically just living for thrills, which may feel fun and exhilarating at the time, but is not really conducive for growing as a person and achieving personal goals.
I started seeing a therapist and taking medication last January (2018) so I have since stabilized a lot. I've tried 2 different medications, they both worked and the one I'm on now is a wonder (Risperodone).
It may take some time to get your dosage right, but it's worth the effort.
Therapy plus medicine is really the best way to go with bipolar because it is widely believed that bipolar is based on chemical imbalances in the brain, which means if you can address the physical matter first, the mind will follow as a response. You'll be less naturally inclined to be as impulsive, to feel those manic episodes and depressive period. It stabilizes you.
If you're going to put in the work anyways, it's a lot easier to put in work with a stable brain and moods than with an unstable brain and constantly swinging moods
Thanks for sharing your story. You should try taking fish oils which help balance these chemicals in the brain. Its said you should have at least 1000mg of EPA daily. My mom has bipolar and its mostly manic episodes. Fish oil with regular meds help a lot. It broke her rapid circle of every week to months and getting better it's getting better day by day
Are u ok now
I know this is a year old but it popped up for some reason for me and I just wanted to share my story. When I was 18, real close to turning 19, I was having what I now realize was a manic episode. I was in college, I began drinking even though I never had before, I told one of my best friends that I had a crush on them which is something I would never have done normally because I dont really actually think I liked them like that. I was all over the place and then I came crashing down and I self harmed HEAVILY, which I had done up until this point but not as a bad as this one night that I recall. I literally ended up hospitalizing myself because I went from being on top of the world for a week down to the worst depression I have ever felt to where I tried killing myself and had to have both of my arms heavily bandaged. I spent my 19th birthday in the hospital. While I was there that was the first time I heard about bipolar disorder and then they began to put me on mood stabilizers, which made me go full zombie mode for quite awhile. I'm now turning 27 this fall and I haven't self harmed or tried to commit suicide since that day. I've worked so much to get to where I am and being able to understand my disorder. I'm not happy with what its done to me. I still have scars, I went from massively underweight from an eating disorder to overweight as I was beginning to heal from it... Every day is a struggle but learning about the disorder was the best thing to ever happen to me because it made me learn ways to cope with it and I'm proud of how far I've come and I hope that there is a day where I will be able to say I'm med-free.
thank you i needed this i owe this show a lot
I have bipolar disorder type 2 and I was diagnosed when I was 13.. I’m now 16 and still struggling but I feel way better than I used to. Seeing this made me feel so happy thank you so much 💖
I was diagnosed with bipolar 2 when i was 13 too! I have suffered for 11 years . It doesn't get better for me as I live in a bad negative environment and so much stigma revolving mental illness in asia. They think the mentally ill are faking it.. making excuses like being lazy. But We REALLY have difficulty in doing consistent errands or jobs like showing up for a lesson as the mood swings are just so hard to cope with. Just a bit of kindness from society can make the mentally ill feel better! And 1 negative word like constantly comparing normal people who do things effortlessly no flaw with us who are ill and imperfect triggers our condition
Is anyone else watching this while coming down?
Coming out of a depression right now, it's like clockwork anymore
Sames, kind of afraid to open all the overly chatty messages and letters i wrote to people on a thrill.
I'm so sorry man. I'm replying 1 year late but I hope you got atleast some highs.
I've been mostly low for a year now and its still going.

@@N1Zer0 I’ve been clean for about 7 months now. Don’t miss the comedowns at all. Every time I’m about to relapse I’ll watch these vids and all the memories will comeback and that helps me stay clean.
I'm Bipolar with frequent severe depression. I have ruined my life when I was extremely happy, and when depressed I don't shower, eat, or leave out of bed for as long as I can.
This was on point!
Having Bipolar disorder is really tough, I have bipolar Disorder 2.
For a few days or a week you have insane amounts of drive, you have goals, you are career driven, you are very social and outgoing, even some could relate your hygiene is perfect, eating the right food, house is extremely clean, you dont really waste too much of the day at all.. You have all this energy and drive that people could only dream of having. Then for me myself, it gets to a point where even if gaming im in full hyperfocus mode and can play games for 12 hours straight no problem, and it starts getting out of control, my jaw gets sore like i have been on amphetamines etc etc
And then it alllllll spirals down hill and you're in bed for a few weeks with no want or need to do nothing and you literally want to just end everything, and sometimes you have no idea why you even feel like this, just you know the weather is bad and it'll hopefully be sunny again soon.
Borderline personality
Severe Anxiety
Major depressive
They initially thought I was bipolar 🤷🏼♀️🤷🏼♀️
Same happened to me. I’m officially diagnosed with depression, anxiety, PMDD, but my psychiatrist originally thought bipolar 2 and changed it to borderline. The first 3 are official but still not sure between BP2 or borderline. My doctor said borderline happens a lot with childhood trauma, which I had.
Thank you I appreciate your wisdom 🙏🏾
I have general/social anxiety and OCD (obsessive thoughts). I use to have depression which I wasn’t really aware of... I would always cover it up. This past year I was able to share my thoughts and finally talk about what was keeping me in a dark place, and I’m a much better.
I've been diagnosed since 2014; after several consecutive deaths within my family and past childhood traumas my brain snapped. it feels like a nightmare, especially when there's psychosis and delusions involved. The paranoia makes it even worse. I've come to terms with the life threatening disease and have learned to deal with the highs and lows. I have bipolar, bipolar doesn't have me.
When I was younger every one told me to just shut up and sit down. I was wild. I didn’t know what was wrong with me. When my parents finally took me to the doctors the doctor immediately knew I had ADHD. We tried every type of medicine. Until one day we found Ritalin. I am on the highest dose and now I can finally concentrate, now I’m not being made fun of. Now I am the most intelligent person in all of my classes now I am in beta club. I went from being the stupidest one in all of my classes to the smartest. I am now studying psychology. This just goes to show all thous kids that if you try hard enough you can accomplish anything you want. It’s doesn’t mater if your weird or strange one siting in the corner. You can do anything you set your mind to. I promise 😉
I smell a lie...
U guys are doing a great job please make videos of all disorders in DSM 5 and show all associated effects caused by all these disorders
I’m so glad y’all mentioned hypomania. A lot of people think that bc I’m don’t exhibit super obvious “crazy” symptoms I’m not in a manic episode when it reality it’s all in my head or translating as physical twitching or insomnia. This was really well done 👍🏼
Same... Type 3 isn't that known by masses.
Phenibut helped me alot with anxiety. It was more of a tool for learning rather than a crutch.
Huge fan of the show! Would love to see one on dyslexia!
I’ve been seeing a psychiatrist for YEARS since age 17 and only now at 22 was I diagnosed with bipolar 1 w/psychosis and OCD. It makes so much more sense then depression and anxiety
ocd, adhd, anxiety, depression and bdd
Bipolar really wears you out especially when you’re manic. Or right after.
Yeah, it drives me insane! Not even the medication can help control it!
"like your blood is soil" thanks for the nightmares, ill never get rid of them. brb turning into a tree in abt 20 mins
Soiled I think. Not soil.
I have depression, anxiety, ptsd and insomnia and on 3 different medications. After trial and error I'm great now!!
Have way too many family members with this
Thor Odinson or should I say.. sane
Most of my dad's side has it my sister has it in skitzofrinik same as most of my dad's side to
I sympathise :(

There a reason it took you nearly 5 minutes to talk about the topic?
10 min mark
When he said get excited and call friends then dont wanna talk them after I almost thought i had it until he kept talking. Whew. I have ADHD and sometimes my energy is high and when I take my meds I dont wanna talk to anyone but just focus on my work.
i recently have been diagnose with Bi polar , For Most of my life i have struggled with understanding why i would have mood swings so drastically and dramatically when i conciously was aware i was acting out and could have responded much differently and more compassionately.... i hate it TBH but im starting to research bi polar alot and change habits to try and control myself better.
I LOVE UR CHANNEL .

Lot of us have both, or move from ADD to BP in our 20s.
ayyy

I'm commenting for my sister.
I was like " oh my gosh, go on with it already!" It dragged.
I just got diagnosed bipolar last month and so much makes more sense now, even just learning about it makes it seem more manageable plus the anti psychotics and mood stabilizers, wow I can't explain the difference life just got at least 600 times easier
i was recently diagnosed with bp and i honestly know nothing about it, other than how i feel, so i appreciate this information.
Im bipolar and the way my psychiatrist explained it too meee is very different and i get not everyone is the same either , but bipolar is a combination of extreme highs and lows and either or can last for an hour or several weeks and sometimes the change can be like the flip of a light switch
This helps me to understand my wife and will help when we talk to social security
I have bipolar disorder, I was diagnosed at 18 and I'm 24 now. One thing that really helped was to actually accept the fact that I actually have bipolar disorder. When you think of it, uasially you think of people who are extreme and researching it and listening to others who also have it helped immensely to normalize it in my brain. After accepting it, when I started to feel urges to spend immense amounts of money or planning crazy things I stop myself, realize this isn't what I actually want and go on with my life. It doesn't always help but when I get manic enough I'm lucky to have my boyfriend there to talk me down and same with the depressive side as well.
Once I accepted it, I felt like I could just be. Catching myself out when I have the urge to carry out life changing plans or check out cart. Its not smooth sailing but it’s so less heavier.
I’m glad you have someone as support more especially for the lows of lows and heighten experience of the surroundings. Although 2 years down the line please take care 🌻
Pretty informative. I want to start making videos about my Bipolar Disorder.
