@Thuggin2222 What???? Your cannot be serious!!! First of all manic depressive and Bipolar disorder are one and the same. It is just that manic depressive is an older term that was used. Why would you want to go through a torturous hell the way many on us truly do. You cannot "make" yourself become Bipolar". I am sorry to say this, but people like you who say things like this, whether you are kidding or not, what we go through is no joke. Get a grip.
@faroorooash I have always been told by my doctor Bipolar disorder is manageable, but never have I heard it will be curable. Have you read this somewhere? Your doctor has shared this with you? The reason I ask these questions of you is that my psychiatrist has prepared me to live with this for the rest of my life. I am really thorough with managing me meds; however I have rapid cycles, and it gets scary and then I get to a point to where I just "crash".love to hear your thoughts
What is normal? Its all about what you think about yourself not compairing your life with that of someone eles. If you want to be sad your going to be said, if you want to be happy, hell your going to be happy. If you want to be like him or her, your going to have problems because your not like him or her, your you and only you. So what is normal? Being like everyone or imbrassing your gift no one eles has. Great things come from this if you look deep within. Wake up and what is normal???
I understand that although my doctor says that I am sick or that I have a treatable illness or disease, he or she is just using a figure of speech and cannot establish, with any test or procedure known to medical science that I in fact "have" the "illness" implied by the diagnostic label.
jockypay: i can relate. i also LOVE JIMI HENDRIX. i have a lot of manic depressions. it rules my entire life. i feel like you do. i sleep alot to escape also !!! i love nature, past vacations when i was undiagnosed. i went everywhere, drove a car, went on spending sprees (that's awful),tried to learn computer, failed badly, couldn't type anymore, whatever took attention to details. now, i'm taking depakote, cymbalta, risperdone, and another one...can't remember it. duh !!!
@133SIS I'm with tgleeso1 on this. It's tiring at times, but I wouldn't want it any other way. I've been bipolar for 16 years now and I'm happy about it :) (Most days) ;)
your video made me just cry with the depression part...I was diagnosed 14 years ago....finally I think they have found the right medication for me, but I switched doctors about two years ago...I had the same doctor for about ten years and I really dont htink he was too good. I gave up hope on the medication. Its been a strugling journey but at least there is HOPE...it IS a treatable illness!!! Thank you for posting your video!!! Very accurate description!!
This is a great video...Google "FRANKLY BIPOLAR" to help the cause, and be sure to check out the website to learn more information about bipolar disorder, join the forum, read blogs, and take polls. All of this is to change the reality of Bipolar disorder!
I often wonder if I am bipolar when I hear all the bipolar people in the videos say they sleep constantly. That has never been the case with me-I have type 1 bipolar. The only time I sleep like that is when I am severely depressed/suicidal. I am more apt to sleep less than 4 hours or none at all.
My mom is bipolar... living with her when shes acting up is extremely frustrating and sad... but when she is in her normal days she is amazing<3... I'm scared that i might get it later on in life.. My mom is bipolar and my dad has depression... :-\
I mean, I heard voices on my mind almost every day since I wake up, sometimes I hurtd myself while Im sleeping and is pretty normal for me thought. When Im in the street I feel like evebody is watching me and talk about me, even making fun of me. But I just learnt to deal with that. If maybe in those days I went to a doctor I would be sick now. So, I think this kind of stuff should not been shared because people would start to think about it and declare thmself ill.
Holy shit! They're talking about ME!!! In shock and crying now! feeling so down and very alone right now. I was diagnosed with ADHD a year and a half ago. Stepped into a whole new world me back then when I started taking Ritalin. I also went to tears then. "Is it Really Really possible to live such way??" Upperjoy and killing sadness came over me at the same time. Happy for this chance at a better life and very very sad for me. I had/have to live a life rarely at ease and with peace of mind
@Rosh1962 ; the moodswings however r still here... partly caused by ADHD I'm sure but I'm startin 2 think now that the part of me I couldn't get a grip on (the very very lowdowns/hysterical joy on top of the world-thing)... has a name... that maybe maybe the puzzlepieces will fit lateron...

@Jauckor omg ur a cunt! my mum has had bipolar since she was 20 shes now 47! she is separated from my dad therefore when she is ill i am the only one around to look after her and my younger brother and im only 17!!! simply i would never wish mental illness on anyone nor would anyone with a mental illness. i mean how could i want someone to have to spend months in hospital and take more than 20 pills a day just to control their illness! in the past i have had to deal with so much shit due to this
@brookesyful I have my thoughts, you have yours. I apologise if I hurt you. Much respect for all that you do for your mother. But Im still thinking in the same way. Peace.
I feel Like that& smoke pot & stuff & have those thots of dieing..... but .. i feel like its imposabil for me to be bipolar.... & if i ever tryed telling ppl my problems they think im nuts , so i keep to myself...

Diabetes and related complications like hyperglycemia, ketoacidosis, pancreatitis, coma, and death. These side effects can develop at any point during treatment, but we know whats best for you. Its our bussiness to sell drugs, that cause disability, and psychological suffering.
There are No lab tests,MRIs, brain scans, X-rays or chemical imbalance tests that can verify any mental disorder is a physical condition. me -former victim of psychiatry
thankyou for the vid. Means a lot to me. Lets me know i am not alone. These people that are ignorant think that i am crazy. they look at me strange, talk strange to me. i am just a human being going through life just like they are.
I have problems sleeping just about every night because of my thoughts. I'm always thinking of something scary or bad happening when I start trying to go to sleep. I feel the need to stay awake but I continue to relax and finally fall asleep. I LOVE falling asleep because you don't feel anything afterwards and the scary thoughts stop. It's like that every night..
Bipolar disorder is more than reading it - it is about the person experiencing it - it is about them healing and feeling better and knowing that this is possible!
im not bi polar but i have ADHD, hyperactivity and go trought depressions alot D: for myself its almost being bi polar.... but without psycothics shit
I am the great fun guy...always fun! GM...restaurant...but when I am down..people notice....WE need to find out how to grab on to the things that makes up happy...all the time!! thats what THEY expect from us!
@kimmyDacosta I have felt the same, on all your points. You need to be persistent, do not allow yourself to quit.
Remind yourself:
Some people do understand--look out for them.
Your medical problem is not a moral failure--no matter what anyone else might say--you need your rest.
Your points 3 & 4 are serious stuff--your doc needs to prescribe something new. Don't be afraid to try new meds. I don't know how many times I've changed, but now they work pretty well.
@kimmyDacosta For deliverance, you might try going to your favourite green space, outside. Sit in the grass, and stare at a flower or a nice rock or something. Push the thoughts away, all of them. Over and over again.
If you do this regularly, you will be doing something like Buddhist meditation.
If you don't like that, then maybe take regular walks. Being outside and taking mild exercise can work wonders.
@HereticRex ...I know Kimmy Dacosta & she happens to be experienced, very, dealing with the same thing just so u know, & she is doing very well with it & can help anyone to deal with it. If you do not have this disorder then maybe you need to just step back & allow her to help instead of always saying something negative, these people dont need to hear that right now, they need help. If you dont have the problem then you dont understand it trust me on that. I refuse to humor u with an argument
You're mixed up here. I gave no arguments to Kimmy Dacosta -- those were for you.
I am in that mental health space -- i am bipolar now, and for life.
My only thing for Kimmy was to offer up something that has worked for me. She can take it or leave it; I just want her to know that at least some people understand.
For you, I have a lot of criticism -- but you already know that.
You are very brave. I understand what you are going through, I addressed the comments below as THATNAME & my response was taken negatively, I am praying for you. A friend living in my house is going through it right now is a devote Christian & I am going through this with her. Being a believer truly makes a difference as you go through. Wish I could connect you because she has her days but deals with it differently & is mostly in control & having better days now & willing to share.
mback74 2 , I am not going to humor you by answering or addressing you with that fowl language, it is absolutely unecessary. You either believe or you don't. Do you believe that God can perfoom miracles??? Well He still does if you believe that He can!!!! If others experience healing and miracles and wonders so can you!!!
i hate this shit!!! i dont have friends cause of this....... I called them every curse word and bad word in the dictionary and no one seems to wanna talk 2 me...every since i was born the devil has been in control of my life. There seems to be no God
I experience these "symptoms" and I consider myself normal (as if there really is a norm). I don't consider or call myself bipolar though others have. I just think and operate differently than others. I don't take meds. When I am up and thinking all the time I try to channel it someway. When I am down, I let myself be down. I don't put on an act or apologize and I find a way to express it. we are fine as we are. the expectation to conform is what makes us all crazy and sad.
I have a friend and a brother who were diagnosed as chronic, and they went to a Christian deliverance ministry and were delivered of it & now live normal lives in Jesus name. Find a deliverance ministry not a regular church. Diseases or sicknesses are called infirmities and Jesus took those stripes to deliver us from them. Anything out of the normal way were created to function is not of God we were once normal as God created us, suddenly here comes bipolar. Just go & & believe God to heal you.
@THATNAMEJESUS Sorry but that is utter bullshit and this and you are what is wrong with this planet. There is no real norm. We are all unique and if there is a god then god made us this way. It's ppl like you who create shame and force conformity that make ppl like us who are different feel as though life is hell.
@THATNAMEJESUS You seriously need to reconsider yourself. If you find it productive to think that way, about yourself, then be pleased with that. But don't presume to know how that plastic artificial kooky junk is going to be for absolutely anyone else. I have religion. I say that you don't.
@HereticRex Thats your problem right there, you have religion and I dont., what i have is a deep intimate relationship with God Amighty. Learn this...When someoen tells you they have an experience you can choose not to believ it but nevewr call them a liar, I could never tell you that, because i am speaking of my own 2 people that I lknow. Now...you either want to be delivered from the problem or not and are willing to try God in a different way from how you have tried Him in the past...????
@nicerlives You misunderstand. It seemed to me that you think that anyone could achieve a "deep intimate relationship with God" just by following your instructions or whatever. This is what I deny. I have seen 2 people take instructions such as yours, and end up in an even deeper pit of sorrow. You wouldn't ever say that such a person deserves to die alone in those pits, would you? ... and, just to cover this off, you wouldn't say that your way to God is the only way, would you?
@nicerlives I don't get your comments about lying. I never accused you of lying--I even said that if it works for you, then be pleased. I respect your journey, anyone's journey, if that works for them. The problem is when others try to plant the maps of their journeys into your head/life/whatever. So the problem with your posts is that you advise, forcefully, that all others submit to such transplantations.
@nicerlives And finally, you presume to have learning for me about religion. "Religion", the word, is quite a variable. It could mean anything from "catholicism" to "prayer", "meditation", "zeal", ..., and more.
You offer to give me a different way to "try" God. You might have called that way of yours, to "try God", a religion, and I wouldn't challenge you on that point. Hm. Is this "try" like a trial, after which you would judge God? Or maybe like the slogan, "try life", & just marketing?
I think that this illness is going to kill me..I try and try but these depression moods keeps coming back. Hopefully my new meds will help. I´m tired...
i have never been diagnosed, but i do feel like this often times, almoast all the time, and a lot of my close friends ad people i know suffer from bipolar disorder. i try to help, by being the person to cheer you up, or the person to calm you down, but in general its nice to be a shoulder for other people to lean on, and if you know someone that is suffering, try to help each other, try to seek help, work at it and never quit
This made me cry. Only cause this is exactly what I'm going through. Right now...It seems like no matter what we just feel alone. No one understands us and then takes how we are and holds it against us. It makes relationships and work so much harder. Thank you for making this video. Hopefully it'll make others understand more.
through my 3 episodes. i only went down 1st 2 episodes..i now believe medication was the reason for my down mood and strengh. i feel great now and understand what true bipolar is
I have to say it's almost impossible to seek help. You don't want to bother anybody, and when you try to talk no one seems to understand. The thing is that there are moments when you need someone to take over your life, to buy the groceries for you, to remember you to brush your teeth, to manage your money. Well it's impossible to expect that much from anyone so you just don't seek for help, because you know that it will be overwhelming for anybody to take that job.
THis is pretty accurate for me. Ive had the highs that seem so incredible until you come down and realize the idiot you were making of yourself. And the hardest part for me was the deppression. Couldnt help but isolate since i didnt feel connected with people anyway.
Smoking weed is so dangerous , I got my card and i did so much that I went into mania with PSYCOSIS. SCARY AS #@!% Hope everyone finds PEACE with themselves . Thanks
@mtgsilence91 I did this too... I was manic and high and totally lost it. I thought the weed was giving me a heart attack and making my brain shake around in my head.... It was horrible. I lay on the ground with my head between my legs crying and praying that God let me live... I heard noises in my head of doors slamming and my heart was beating against me with every SLAM and Bang and KNOCK! I usaully had only smoked when i was depressed to take the edge off of all of the pain i was feeling,.
What are you talking about? Oh wait... yes, yes, yes, and drinking and pills, over it, weed seems to help. I honestly believe it keeps the Mania and Manic Happiness there alot longer than usual.
But Marijuana is Illegal, and so it motha f*cking Sucks ASS cause thats another problem... Paranoia May Destroy, whoop!!
Manic and Depressive, sometimes it seems like Mania lasts a long long time, and other times I fell like a G*d d*mn YOYO. Or like I am on a merrygoround, and Lifes Grand and SUCKS!!

I have bp type 1, feeling pretty manic right now.....glad that I am in school still and I will never give up. They told me I would never be able to go back to school and get my degree but I am here to prove them wrong. I just try as hard as I can to do as much as I can during the stable times and pray my friends understand. I don't think they do, but I try to open their minds.
Tears streaming down my face. I have type 1 and my son type 2. I feel like I've given him some kind of leprosy. And still this video does not explain it all cause the only way is if the person trying to understand bipolar has it.
@ismfofforever Bipolar is at least recognized more as a disorder and has less stigma. I have Borderline Disorder and face stigma even in the Psychiatric field. I was a dignosed bipolar until a few months ago. People just don't get it it.
omg thank u 4 this video im suffering really bad from bi polar n it aint no joke man its fucked up but its good 2 know im not the only 1 with these feelings thanx again!!!
THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS BI POLAR DISORDER! TRUST ME!!!
THIS IS ALL LIES TO GET YOU TO STOP FROM HAVING AN AH HAA MOMENT!
The Governments plan to destroy you! Let your mind race... keep going... you'll find answers! I DID! Don't let NO ONE tell YOU your crazy! You are not!
@IAMLEGEND2545 Well, I don't know all the answers, but I do know that going on meds won't help you find them either... you just have to keep searching for your own answers... let your mind race, right down your thoughts and try to work your way through them... the more you learn about yourself, the more free you will feel...
@IAMLEGEND2545 Well, I don't know all the answers, but I do know that going on meds wont help you find them either... Just write down everything! All your thoughts, dreams, everything... try to work them all out and learn as much as you can about YOU! You are one of a kind, and the more you know who you are, the free-er you will feel. It takes hard work and determination, but a happy life, unaltered from modern medicine, will come to you. Just have faith in yourself and love yourself.

@Jauckor omg ur a cunt! my mum has had bipolar since she was 20 shes now 47! she is separated from my dad therefore when she is ill i am the only one around to look after her and my younger brother and im only 17!!! simply i would never wish mental illness on anyone nor would anyone with a mental illness. i mean how could i want someone to have to spend months in hospital and take more than 20 pills a day just to control their illness! in the past i have had to deal with so much shit due to this

I have problems sleeping just about every night because of my thoughts. I'm always thinking of something scary or bad happening when I start trying to go to sleep. I feel the need to stay awake but I continue to relax and finally fall asleep. I LOVE falling asleep because you don't feel anything afterwards and the scary thoughts stop. It's like that every night..

4) you seriously feel detached and you very little emotions.

@kimmyDacosta I have felt the same, on all your points. You need to be persistent, do not allow yourself to quit.
Remind yourself:
Some people do understand--look out for them.
Your medical problem is not a moral failure--no matter what anyone else might say--you need your rest.
Your points 3 & 4 are serious stuff--your doc needs to prescribe something new. Don't be afraid to try new meds. I don't know how many times I've changed, but now they work pretty well.
HereticRex 8 months ago
@kimmyDacosta For deliverance, you might try going to your favourite green space, outside. Sit in the grass, and stare at a flower or a nice rock or something. Push the thoughts away, all of them. Over and over again.
If you do this regularly, you will be doing something like Buddhist meditation.
If you don't like that, then maybe take regular walks. Being outside and taking mild exercise can work wonders.
But absolutely for sure, see your doc again.

@HereticRex ...I know Kimmy Dacosta & she happens to be experienced, very, dealing with the same thing just so u know, & she is doing very well with it & can help anyone to deal with it. If you do not have this disorder then maybe you need to just step back & allow her to help instead of always saying something negative, these people dont need to hear that right now, they need help. If you dont have the problem then you dont understand it trust me on that. I refuse to humor u with an argument

@nicerlives HUH??
You're mixed up here. I gave no arguments to Kimmy Dacosta -- those were for you.
I am in that mental health space -- i am bipolar now, and for life.
My only thing for Kimmy was to offer up something that has worked for me. She can take it or leave it; I just want her to know that at least some people understand.
For you, I have a lot of criticism -- but you already know that.

I experience these "symptoms" and I consider myself normal (as if there really is a norm). I don't consider or call myself bipolar though others have. I just think and operate differently than others. I don't take meds. When I am up and thinking all the time I try to channel it someway. When I am down, I let myself be down. I don't put on an act or apologize and I find a way to express it. we are fine as we are. the expectation to conform is what makes us all crazy and sad.

I have a friend and a brother who were diagnosed as chronic, and they went to a Christian deliverance ministry and were delivered of it & now live normal lives in Jesus name. Find a deliverance ministry not a regular church. Diseases or sicknesses are called infirmities and Jesus took those stripes to deliver us from them. Anything out of the normal way were created to function is not of God we were once normal as God created us, suddenly here comes bipolar. Just go & & believe God to heal you.

Now...you either want to be delivered from the problem or not and are willing to try God in a different way from how you have tried Him in the past...????
nicerlives 9 months ago
@nicerlives You misunderstand. It seemed to me that you think that anyone could achieve a "deep intimate relationship with God" just by following your instructions or whatever. This is what I deny. I have seen 2 people take instructions such as yours, and end up in an even deeper pit of sorrow. You wouldn't ever say that such a person deserves to die alone in those pits, would you? ... and, just to cover this off, you wouldn't say that your way to God is the only way, would you?
HereticRex 8 months ago
@nicerlives I don't get your comments about lying. I never accused you of lying--I even said that if it works for you, then be pleased. I respect your journey, anyone's journey, if that works for them. The problem is when others try to plant the maps of their journeys into your head/life/whatever. So the problem with your posts is that you advise, forcefully, that all others submit to such transplantations.
You even tried it on me, just now.
HereticRex 8 months ago
@nicerlives And finally, you presume to have learning for me about religion. "Religion", the word, is quite a variable. It could mean anything from "catholicism" to "prayer", "meditation", "zeal", ..., and more.
You offer to give me a different way to "try" God. You might have called that way of yours, to "try God", a religion, and I wouldn't challenge you on that point. Hm. Is this "try" like a trial, after which you would judge God? Or maybe like the slogan, "try life", & just marketing?

EMDR Eye movement desensitization reprossessing.
It untangles your thoughts by making your brain transfer back and forth from left brain to right brain and back and again.
Considerable research has gone into it.

I have to say it's almost impossible to seek help. You don't want to bother anybody, and when you try to talk no one seems to understand. The thing is that there are moments when you need someone to take over your life, to buy the groceries for you, to remember you to brush your teeth, to manage your money. Well it's impossible to expect that much from anyone so you just don't seek for help, because you know that it will be overwhelming for anybody to take that job.
