  • Support Groups

    • Close Bipolar Disorder

      I was diagnosed Bipolar I about 2 years ago. I was on drug treatments in the past, but lost my insurance at the beginning of the year and have since been treating with herbs/supplements. This actually seems to be working better than the drugs. My support group is slim to none because my parents don't understand the disease. However, my boyfriend has been very supportive and encourages me everyday. It is my hope that by being here I can make friends going through the same things.

      Treatments

      Fish Oil Working / Worked
      Currently on this as part of my routine. Seems to be working fine.
      Holistic Health Working / Worked
      Currently using various herbs/supplements, meditation, and spiritual work.
      5-HTP Working / Worked
      Works just as well if not better than my prescription anti-depressants I used to take. Also helps me sleep.
      Ginkgo Working / Worked
      Seems to help me concentrate better. Thoughts aren't so scattered.
      Folic Acid Working / Worked
      This is the closest I could find, but I actually take a b-complex which is great for moodswings.
    • Close Stress Management

      I have Bipolar Disorder, and stress is very bad for me. I'm hoping that talking with people about stress management will help me deal.
