    About Me

    I am a single mother of three, I have been battling Bipolar all my life but just recently got diagnosed with it a few years ago. I am a Rapid Cycler. I also have been diagnosed with AADD, Fibromyalgia, & Rheumatiod Arthritis. And recently diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes. It is very difficult to deal with all of this and I get overwhelmed frequently. I am looking for people to talk to who have similar issues for friendship and support. Thanks~

    • Close Bipolar Disorder

      I have been battling with Bipolar, Anxiety, Depression, and ADD my whole life. I was Physically and Mentally abused as a child. I was always blamed for my behavior although unable to control it. I always felt helpless and alone. No one cared enough to get help for me, so I was able to seek treatment as an adult. I developed Postpartum depression at age 18 in 1994. I have had bouts of depression since then. I also have had frequent Anxiety & Panic attacks, and social phobias since childhood.
