Bipolar Disorder and Suicide

[yamahaing7737]

i wonder if she misses the manic stages?

[neyugnyrad]

Listen folks, you can be free from all this pain(hell) by Jesus Christ, Our God. He is Always ready for you to call on His name. Go to Him before it is too late. Stop taking medicine and all these things people(sinners) are telling you to do. This is Truth, I want to help all those I can. Just stop believing all these lies that you have this incurable disease. Your doctors don't care about you, go to Jesus for your own sake. You will be Free. Guarantee by a Starseed Child(Child of Light).

[jasonmhall1972]

Bi polar is the best feeling ever/bi polar also opens the biggest black hole ever

[bminternet43]

thank god i've not had that

[hilannie62]

@itsMeBenjaminBB1 thankyou for your kind comment x

[senioritalamda]

I feel weak, weaker than everyone else because I cannot get up every morning, don't feel like brushing my teeth or doing anything else until in the afternoon. I am a failure. My husband works hard to give me all the expensive things that I want because he is so anxious to make me happy. But I still don't feel happy. I live with this melancholia sort of high and lows and I am so lonely. Bipolar Disorder is awful but I want to fight it. I want to live a normal life and do things just like everyone

[hilannie62]

A friend is someone who knows the song in your heart and can sing it back to you when you have forgotton the words..............i have pushed all my friends away and i cant remember the title of the song let alone the words anymore

[ItsMeBenjaminBB]

@hilannie62 What you just said was so beautiful that it made me cry. I completely understand. I suffer from bipolar disorder and I often feel the same. Please don't give up. You are not alone. You are a beautiful person, Only a truly beautiful heart can describe a friend the way you did. The song in your heart can be heard again, it is still there, your heart remembers it, so let your heart sing it to you and you will re-learn it.

[Ziggyquest123]

Being Bi Polor wanting to be gone is always a possibility for me. I keep going trying to reach for my dream to be a reality. I want to live and not die for iam a human being with mental health issues since the moment of my birth been fighting to live a better life

Dont lock the door and humiliate and call it help ! it didnt ! f that !

[MarielAnna2322]

ECT saved my life. I had uncontrollable impulses to kill myself…and medications were not working …After 5 institutions ..I was ready for anything anyone had to offer …Though I was unhappy with the severe initial short term memory loss…it was most defiantly worth it . Though I agree with what this video has to offer..I have only had one suicide attempt in 10 years.

[cmckaycm]

I have bipolor disorder but i am to scared to tell anyone but my brother and my two closest friends. I have thoughts about suicide but as I said I've only told three people and I'm to scared to tell anyone else. What should I do?

[MrBradua]

@cmckaycm Man, I think you should tell people, especially your family. What would Suicide give you? It would ruin your friends and families life, just because you feel that you need to leave this world? For what? Their are plenty of people you can talk to, I'd start off with your family, they made you, they can help you.

[dafunker00]

@MrBradua You have no idea what it is like to find life unlivable.

[MrBradua]

@dafunker00 I do honestly, I've been in a similar way when both of my parents almost died and my father spent time in a mental institution. Dont tell me I don't know what it's like, I'm 15 and I've dealt with problems since I was 11, I should know.

[thedixierose913]

@cmckaycm Get Help now!!! bi-polar disorder can be treated with medication.a chemical problem in the brain causes this.Tell your parents or if your old enough se a DOCTOR NOW!!

[ridetheltrain]

watch?v=_LTRKfp0P9c

This is a song about being Bi Polar.

[SuperMykos]

what note? my ways was not to write anything, leave no evidence and hang myself in my garage no one knows

[CountDeSade00]

I forget what I am going to do and I get angry with myself and want to inflict pain on myself as a punishment. I often want to do terrible things to my body because I feel so detached from it like its not really important or that I belong in this host of a body. I just feel like I wanna go back home but I dont know where that is. Perhaps on a different planet who knows. Perhaps ECT could help. Im on the Lam. by the way.

[kerrileewolf]

watch A-Z people with bipolar... Churchill, Beethoven, Stephen Fry etc... it can be managed so that the brilliance that it brings can come through! I have bipolar - and I'm not too shoddy myself!

[cathryn169]

Thanks for sharing this. You are amazing. I have bi-polar and DID. I've had ECT and I remember all you're talking about. I'm on three meds now. I don't know what you're taking but these meds worked for me as far as beinging me some stability. Not completely stable but not deeply depressed and only occasionalyy suicidal: Cymbalta, lamictal, and abilify. Hope you find a combination that helps you. Stay strong. You're not alone.

[Rockfox1973]

I am, too. I was in the ER last weekend but haven't been able to get a doctor to care enough to help me get the proper care I need, so I still struggle. People just don't understand.

[xXxXBleedPurpleXxXx]

@Rockfox1973 theres lots of people who dont understand, but i have to also be understanding to them, as we don't know all there is to know about this disorder. it's really truly a case of unless you have it, you will never know how it really feels. right now i focus on getting to work every day, and pretty much come home and crawl back into bed. which sucks, i'll admit, but i think im just so happy to get through work its all i can do til the depression its self lets go for a while.

[bheffern47130]

[MujaRagHeadKillaUK]

The best way to deal with Bipolar is to have friends and family that understand what you are going through. My best friend for instance can see when i go deppressed, so he will start joking about and play fighting with me, it sounds childish, but it brings me up every time. Smoking weed also stops me from feeling anxious, on edge, talking fast and it helps me think clearly when im pissed off and cant concentrate. The councillor and psychiatrists dont have a fucking clue.

[tayman1975]

@MujaRagHeadKillaUK You know what i do when i get to anxious is go to the gym and ride the treadmill for 30minutes. it slows me down for the rest of the night and when in my lows i go to the gym as well to release endorphins the feel good drug your body produces. i don't even take any meds. i like who i am. Iv'e tried them all. i like me better.

[LemonStamp]

@Soulfree2008 I've actually found dope to be the only thing that's really helped to pull me out of a depression AND give me a positive perspective on myself and my situations. I started smoking regularly to counteract the anxiety I got from Prozac, and eventually dropped Rx meds when they seemed futile, even detrimental. When I'm high, whether I've been manic or depressed, I'll suddenly level and (if I haven't had too much) I'll immediately start taking steps to better the situation.

[Goetia78]

My cousin recieved shocks for major depression about 20 years ago. Since then her mind has deteriorated to a child-like level. She's there in body but not mind. This shit really scares me since I have bipolar disorder that after 7 years and 24 or 25 meds (you lose track after a while) I have yet to stabilize. I'd rather become a statistic than get ECT.

[dj02tc5]

@rock2metal666 go fuck ure self lol

[JesusOurSalvation]

Never try and take your life or harm yourself friends.

We are precious to God - He loves us so much. Pray to God for help and He will hear you.

[BlueDevilPride11991]

@JesusOurSalvation I'm bi-polar and I used to get nearly ringing thoughts of suicide constantly. After I found Jesus Christ, I know that I have something in store when I leave this earth the correct way, and the thought of suicide, as appropriate as it sounds at the time, seems like nonsense, which gives me what I need to move on :)

[JesusOurSalvation]

@BlueDevilPride11991 Thank you so much for sharing your testimony Brother.

It is important to remember that Jesus saves people completely and that once you are saved you are always saved no matter what happens .

[JesusOurSalvation]

Mood stabilizers help my bi-polar.

I feel able to start making positive changes with God's help and the medication to help with this illness.

[MrsPrudenceToYou]

Thank you for making this video~I have just been diagnosed bipolar and your information has helped

[dossmanos8]

Thank you for this video. Very enlightening.

[SamuelRiv]

Side effects (such as memory loss) are vastly different for everyone, as a treatment like ECT is like trying to plug a catastrophic leaking oil pipe in the Gulf of Mexico with as much tire bits and golf balls as you can throw at it -- except this time it has a 99% chance of succeeding, at least in the short-term. Regarding suicide, I guess the end lesson is that there's this last-ditch effort - if you're in such pain daily, you can ask your doctor for ECT and guarantee lucidness for a bit.

[strangegroove1985]

i AM DONE WITH THIS DISEASE IM GOING TO OVERDOSE ON MY MEDS VERY SOON

[QuiteFriendlySwede]

@strangegroove1985 Never Surrender!! Please...

[DeBoraBioSculpture]

@strangegroove1985 DONT!! You have to try and constantly find ways of accepting & dealing with it..old/new ways..whatever works!! even if its for only moments of it. Like if you'd loose a leg or a hand- find ways to overcome the handicap..& remember: THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS BEING NORMAL !! Being part of the norm does not make anyone be Normal!

@strangegroove1985 Don't do it...Please...Get help. Life is good. No matter how hopeless things may seem.

[TheKylund]

i feel for you...life will never be easy for people like us but like WJJ1968 said..very brave video you had made may god have mercy on all our souls...i want to live one more day lord please take our bipolar syptoms away i beg of you lord.

[JesusgavemeHolySpiri]

Jesus can change all that... ask for the Holy Spirit and read His word and cry out to HIM and HE can give NEW souls, minds and hearts... HE really can and DID for me.. message me if you want my testimony... I have no reason to lie... He has worked miracles for me shown with vision, signs, and a new soul literally. Luke 11:13 Matthew 7:11 - "Will GOD not give the Holy Spirit to those that ask of HIM!" Notice the explanation mark, its rather a commandment telling us to ask for change. Peace

[dominicwolfe1234]

@Soulfree2008 i feel a lot more stable when i'm on "cannabanoid therapy" too (dunno if thats real or if you're just saying you like getting stoned if i'm perfectly honest) if i'm stoned i may not be as driven as i get when i'm on my ups, but at least i don't feel as bad as i do when i have my downs. as soon as i come off weed i feel a lot more unstable, lifes a big bitch.

[marter2006]

ECT sounds scary as hell,

Thank you for the informational videos, exception721.

[fathersonnholyspirit]

None of you have to live with this anymore. I used to be a victim of this and I know the frustration, embarrassment and fear that is involved. Please go to my site. You dont need to buy anything, I promise you its already been paid for fuentesevangelism-.-c-o-m-

[strangegroove1985]

I am thinking of committing suicide, I had two manic episodes, and I lost a lot of my hair from stress and even got a hair transplant! The procedure cost me $6000 and I am going to sue Bosley Medical Group. I am tired of this Bipolar Disorder, I use to make great music and now

[Abrading1]

What does Bipolar do? It lines the pockets of BIG PHARM and doctors. There is no such illness. Bipolar is FAKE!!! It didn't exist years ago and now all of a sudden the is "a label" for people who don't want to take responsibility for their own actions. It's so much easier to blame this fake illness. Kinda like saying..."the devil made me do it". Grow up for Chris's sake.

[dominicwolfe1234]

@Abrading1 gravity didnt exist years ago there have been many advances in the modern world, if it offers some relief to some people that feel bad "labelling" their bad feelings and often good feelings then why take that away from them. you need to grow the fuck up and respect the fact that not everybody feels like you do.

[gogirl0404]

@Abrading1 Did you mean Chris's or Christ's? Wow. Bipolar disorder is a real thing...maybe overly-diagnosed...but at least some really have it. I know I do. It affected my school work, job, family, and friends. My ups were crazy and my downs were so very depressing. When I was finally put on the right track, starting with meds, life changed. I am still a productive part of society with a respectable job and going to school to be a teacher. Also, blessed incredibly much by Christ, with a T :).

[ursulaheppworth]

These are my demons too,I do not agree with ECT ever...I've worked in community mental health for 12yrs+4yrs voluntary...ECT messes people up,forgettful+flat in mood,

Its now my turn..diagnosed with Rapid Cycling Bipolar for nearly 3yrs+survived 2 suicide attempts..I don't believe in god,but these experiences have made me stronger..I feel love more towards others,,,Bi-polar is a bitch..1 in 4 of die,,,,gotta hold in there!!! stay strong x

[ZZBob777]

Hope you are doing better. Had electroshock back years ago (1965) and I am still around. Those thoughts of suicide. They are persistent devils!

[WJJ1968]

Very brave video. Thank you.

[tboy221]

i wrote a note of suicide. i still have it. been to the mental health ward at depaul hospital for about a week. back in janurary 2010. now i dont think i have to worry about bipolay or major depression. i do suffer from anxiety attacks though which causes begining stages of depression. now that i understand it i can help myself

[mara114828]

I truly hope you're doung better now! Tace care, Anna

[dossmanos8]

I know the feeling . I will do just about anything to try and get rid of the suicidal depression. I just had another 6 shock treatments inpatient.

[JesusOurSalvation]

A friend of mine had ECT and it damaged him. He lost several years of his past memory. He could not write properly afterwards. These problems have continued for years now .

[Irishguy754]

i have bipolar disorder, i have been taking a medication called empower plus, type it into youtube, it has turned me into a completely normal person, i have no suicidal thoughts anymore, i have a memory i can think through a thought, please just take a look, there will be no more ect, it will change your life.
