I have been diagnosed with BP for 8 years also, I suffer from PTSD. I am 41 yrs. old. I'm still confused at how it has overtaken every aspect of my life....and not in a positive way. I have 2 lovely children, a husband who tries, and wants to understand. My life is not my own...my goal is to take control again and find out if the old Barb can come back.
Mural painting, I love racketball, scrabble and backgammon. I have two close friends, by choice. My interests also include lots and lots of reading. It's how I diagnosed myself.

Hey, how are you?? I get worried when I dont see you on in so long. Let me know you are ok when you get a chance.
hi ! :)
Diagnosied 8 years ago(damn) and still somewhat struggling. I had a great new Dr., but insurance got cut off. Now, since the 1st, I've been off my Abilify. I have a great husband and 2 health-beautiful girls. Life is pretty good considering...
Barb, 41 and a wife, and mother of 2 girls. I struggle but cope with Bipolar 1 & PTSD and continue to make progress with reading, being aware of side effects and paying attention to my body and what it is telling me on how my moods are. Looking for insight, insight and more insight. Willing to start at the bottom. LOL
