You all suck. I don’t even know why I brought up mental health on DXP. Peace out.

All ya’ll are idiots except for a few. And it’s really disgusting how uninformed you are with mental health. I made a post about the effects of my bipolar and the struggle I actually Be CAN NOT HELP and mofos in here telling me “you need help” and “you too messy” as if it’s a choice I’m making tonstay sick when in reality I have a brain disorder that I am TREATED FOR. And ya’ll just bashing telling me I don’t deserve love because I decided to step away from a relationship temporarily to work on getting right. Ya’ll seriously the ones who need help. I hope you don’t have a child with mental health issues one day. Because those children need love and support. Not bashing. In this culture I swear people write music about bipolar but have no fucking idea what it is nor even are diagnosed with it and this created a culture of people who think mental health is a choice. Go make the world a better place or go fuck your selves dxp. Frfr. I am gonna find another blog to share my entertainment. So over this energy on here and lack of creatives recognizing someone who merely needs an outlet for their thoughts and feelings. You all DO NOT KNOW ME IN PERSON! You just know my unfiltered internet thoughts. Just like I know NONE OF YA’ll would talk to me like you do in person. We all here to be the person in our heads. But in reality I’m a cool, calm and collected person that people love. Mofos fall in love with me FOR A REASON and I’m not being cocky here. I deserve love just like the rest of you and I truly wish you all some spirituality through positivity for once in your life instead of negativity. I’m especially surprised at the women not sticking together on here and allowing emotional safe space. ALL YA’ll living in 2006! Come to 2019 or gtfo. Bye DXP. You’re welcome for the entertainment. Have fun blowing up eachother's Ego through cattiness as entertainment. That shit gets old.

I'm sorry you had to experience all that here.

I would say just block the people who are

causing you to have a tough time here.

It's easier in my opinion to just do that

because there are some real angels

both men and women on this site.

They have truly saved my life and

helped with my own depression

and suicidal thoughts. I wouldn't

throw in the towel just yet on here

as you are still learning how to

go about the site(?) If you do go

I wish you the best of luck truly

Didn't reply to your other thread but your posts scream typical cancer. Chill. We all have our own demons to deal with. I definitely think it'll be healthier for you to go on a more moderated, hugz for all kind of forums. Over here people are more straight up and uncensored with their thoughts which a lot can't handle (which also probably keeps me and most others coming back here).

Bi polar is one of the harder illnesses to treat and especially for others to understand. I have friends and relatives diagnosed bi polar, as well as having worked a few years in the mental health field and I’ll admit some days it’s vexing to me. It’s a very difficult and intensely personal experience.

As a cancer, you have a need to share your experience of the world, with the world, through an emotion driven lens. Minorly related, I’ve had my own mental health struggles over the years and have received the normal share of vitriol and misguided remarks that goes with it. So while I cannot understand your experience as you do, I can empathize. It’s extremely frustrating when your internal drives are at odds with how they are received by others.

I think I’ve mentioned it before, you’re an artist/singer right? So go back to your art. You’ll find a special reprieve there that no other outlet can give you. Cause it’s yours. Your voice. Your energy. Expressed the way you need to express it.

Plus this time of year is always challenging for cancers. Gemini season has cancers’ sensitivity levels extremely heightened to their environment. That can manifest as oversensitivty if you turn that energy outward on others. But it can also manifest as accelerated personal progress if you pull back and turn the energy inward on yourself. Which I think is what you were starting to do, taking space from the Aqua and re-evaluating what’s best for you, trying to make growth oriented decisions. Posting about it on dxp just made things go outward and a little more left probably. Even that tho, shows you a new boundary you can set for yourself. You’re on the right track, don’t let a hiccup throw you off it.


Thank you for this. I truly appreciate the support, and you definitely seem to get what I was saying. That’s exactly why I knew separating my self from the aqua was the best decision rn. And speaking of my art, in the last 24 hours even I expressed it by both dancing with strangers last night at a questlove Dj set (which is a tradition I do by my self every year). Ran in to a producer friend of mine and talked for hours, both agreeing to jam out together soon (which I havnt done in a while) And getting up this morning and leaving my house to write some more rhythms. I’ve learned healthy boundaries and I’m proud of my self, but as you said in so many words, this brain disorder takes a life of its own, and I chose not to subject another person who I dearly love (the aqua) to that side of me at the moment: she is super supportive and stated I’m always welcome to reach out and let her know if I need anything. And understands if there is a future we are creating a stronger bond by doing right by the both of us and separating at this moment in time. I’m definitely breathing more now knowing I don’t have that aspect to overthink about anymore. I can just think about my self rn and I feel elevated. As much as I miss her, I now smile every time I think about how wonderful our dynamic has been, and how much we both left it on a note of keeping that mutual respect and respecting that dynamic as apposed to destroying it. We showed love and continue to through this separation, and I woke up so so inspired. Now I didn’t realize that about Gemini season but makes sense lol. Let’s see what happens when this season is finally over lol

Toughen up! This is a good practice for daily interaction. As I said in my previous post in a perfect world we would all love and cherish one another and work for our mutual progress, pay attention to Nature, evolve to higher frequencies, my Scorpio ex would live me and we would have two perfect babies, Trump's wig would fall off and so on...but guess what. PEOPLE=SHIT, and that counts us in too...so chill and deal with Your issues because You have to. I will always try to pick someone up and be kind but will also kick them out because they have to stand for themselves. Oh what I've been through...a lot of us here...addictions, self hate...trying to find the answers...and we've all emerged from the storm not knowing how...TAKE IT EASY!


Ohhhh do you are saying alllll I need to do is “toughen up” and “chill” to get over my bipolar hypomanic episode?? Why did no one ever tell me this!!! I better call Johns Hopkins university and let them know to change the medical books and that all I ever needed was to toughen up! That I actually can help my metal disorder! That chemical imbalance is in my control! Wow! You should be given a Nobel prize! I never knew you could control it! Smh.... if you didn’t get my sarcasm you arnt a real Taurus. What part of THERE IS NOTHING YOU CAN SUGGEST FOR PEOPLE TO NOT BE HYPOMANIC do people not understand?? I have been bi polar my whole life and diagnosed for yearsssss. On medication and weekly talk therapy. Once a year I get hypomanic for an indefinite amount of time. In which case there is no “toughening up”! Only thing that can be done is making sure I keep taking my meds so that I dont become full blown manic and simply waiting it out. Bipolar effects your prefrontal cortex! It’s a brain disease directly effecting your EMOTIONS. Your seretonin, dopamine and oxytocin! Basically forcing a depression that is out of your control! No matter what a full and happy life I live it can happen at a drop of a bat and there is NOTHING THAT CAN BE DONE, except by the support of your loved ones and therapists. This disease causes a you feelings and rapid cycling that people with chemically balanced brain function don’t experience. It’s literally something I CAN NOT HELP, yet all of you up on my dick tryna give me suggestions. I never asked for suggestions in my threads nor do I think any of them are genuine (except for a select few). Everyone here is simply condescending. Get over your selves and drop the ego. Or gtfo

A lot of you comparing your depression and hardships (which I’m not invalidating) to bipolar. It is not the same! You can’t help it! There are no practices other than keeping a routine with meds and therapy that you can do to stop it! There is no “chilling out” or “toughening up”! There is no “go read a book” or “do something you love” or love your self bull shit! When it happens it effects your serotonin, dopamine and oxytocin. Depletes them and no matter what a happy and balanced person you are on the norm, an opposite version of you comes out! I am separate from my bipolar, to which I’m my self when I’m not manic! Fun loving, emotionally balanced, ambitious, goal oriented and CONFIDENT person. Someone who has been called a healer by others! Someone who is told by many how much they soothe and uplift them. And than if I experienced hypomania or mania I become the opposite. Pessimistic, self deprecating, sad, depressed, insecure person. And there is literally NOTHING I CAN DO. Ya’ll have Internet, if you want to learn you can. But most of you comparing your hardships obviously don’t know what bi polar is.

yes you can. With medication, self care and learning about your problem. Or you can bitch about it but it won't get you far. Meditation helps.

What part of “I’m doing all three” don’t you understand. Hypomania can still happen when you do all three and you can’t toughen up! I know you don’t like to admit that your wrong but go ahead and hand me a fact and I’ll shut my mouth. But so far I’m handing facts and you are handing opinions. Get over your self.

Listen, I can't pretend to understand bipolar, nor what comes along with it. I can't tell you to seek help, and I can't tell you how to help yourself. I, along with most of DXP, are not trained doctors that can help you. And besides, you probably already have all the help you are needing at the moment. You are aware you are in a hypo manic state, and if you are self aware of that, maybe you should try to not react as much as you are, to those who don't know.

People on DXP are often times, arm chair psychologists. Myself included in them. You will come out of this stage, and adjust back to a "normal" as society deems it. But given that you are currently in the mist of it, you should probably do a little isolation from people. Currently, you are attacking people, or reading things in a very negative context, that isn't there. It is your mania that is causing you to react in such an illogical aggressive way.

I say this, and hope you don't jump to a conclusion where I suggest you don't deserve love. But until this episode is more manageable for you, and you aren't swinging in such drastic highs and lows, it may be better for you to not log onto DXP. And you may want to give your gf or whomever she is, additional information on your condition, so that she can be more educated on the challenges you face on a day to day basis. Then, she can be equipped on how to handle these situations, that you really have no control over.

another question (asking for a friend):

does the mood change happen upon arriving of some new input?

or can I just wake up from a short sleep of 1-2 hours with a total change of mood?

I mean are mood changes based on intellectual-psychological triggers?

or do they depend on the hour and the day? or light? weather conditions? hungry or not? and things like that?

if it's just for the sake of people I think I have an idea for my friend.

You are absolutely correct. I came up with the possibility that it’s connected to my quitting tobacco recently. I was sick with strep for 3 weeks the beginning of last month and ended up quitting. Than shortly after I (now noticing my pattern) realize the change of behavior and mood. But yes the environment can trigger hypomania and mania

So if you have bipolar and experienced mania and hypomania I’m sure you’d be able to empathize with the fact that this bitchy side of me isn’t me. Nor is it “bitchy”. I am trying my best rn and that’s all I can do. And your responses are triggering but it’s a me issue not anyone else’s issue on here. I’ve been dealing with this knowingly and with a lot of research for close to the last 10 years of my life. I am not my brain disorder.

How are so many people actually feeling sorry for this girl??

Being nothing but nasty and belittling every other mental health issue like she is the only one who struggles. Like everyone else has options to overcome their issues but her. Even the ones who also struggle from the same disease, Nope, they don't get it, they don't compare to her. The nastiness.. I just can't. The amount of time and effort @Erzsebet_Bathory gave this thread and the ignorant reactions!? smh


Do you even know what bi polar is??

Are people the only things who influence the moods of a bipolar person?

I mean do they go from one extreme to the other if (for example) a software upgrade worsens the things? for I get mad with technology challenging me.

So is bipolar state of mind a reaction within human relationships? or whatever?


So yeah it’s individual to your personal triggers. Recognizing them is the best form

Of preventative measure. However sometimes life on life terms brings on triggers beyond your control. So I have ptsd as well, and a flashback can trigger hypomania for me. And sometimes anything or anyone or situation can trigger it without warning. And with quitting smoking, I made an impulse decision without taking in to account that it may effect my psyche. And see not to say I can’t quit because I’m bi polar, but it may have helped me

Better prepare. It wasn’t the right time to quit because I have so many other life on life’s terms stressors going on (like money troubles, family, deaths ect.) Which I was powering through all of those. But I think the quitting tobacco through off my balance and so caused hypomania. What people on this thread (some) arnt understanding is during an episode with depletion of all the “happy molecules” in your brain. You become an unpleasant person to be around. And I recommend no one here to take it personally. But, and now recognizably, I have been taking it personally. See when manic, it’s more difficult to control action and reaction. And support systems (like the people in your life willing to listen) are what help us during this time. I’m lacking support rn. And so I turned to DXP. But it’s proven to have been an impulsive and manic decision. Getting a “bright idea” that is probably a terrible idea = bipolar. And for those on here (whom I won’t name) that claim that they are bipolar and “know better.” Well no bipolar person is the same in what they can and can’t handle. And also how it manifests. Some people rapid cycle, and some can stay manic for yearsssss. You can’t compare. And it’s frustrating how uneducated some people are but I also understand why people chose to have certain view points. Life is relative after all.

This is what happens when a cancer puts a thread about feelz on the aqua board.


No that’s not what it is because I take anti anxiety and depression meds for a mental illness I’ve dealt with for decades.


Do you have bipolar?


Do you have paranoia and schizo tendencies?
click to expand



I dont don’t have schizophrenia and so no on the schizo tendencies. But yes on the paranoia. Obsessive rapid cycling. Anxiety, depressive highs and lows. Mood changes (moment to moment.) like crying one second. Dancing the next. Being mad. Than over affectionate and loving. Losing my sex drive. Being hyper sexual. Also diagnosed with anxiety (regardless) and ptsd.

I like this text. is written with really cool head.

when I was reading I was checking my history with the person of whom I am thinking. I told this person in the more peaceful time that I needed to have a room for myself to retreat at times and charge the battery. unbelievable that he didn't say a word.

like some of the dxpers could have disorders too and they don't say a word. people who can see you suffering could suffer from sadistic tendencies. yet there can be misunderstandings as well. or ignorance coming with a young age.

as you said it in your text

and as far as I've noticed

the problem is:

to stop in the good times.

when we don't stop being active in the good mood phase, the brain tries to cancel them and make a compensation for all that in the bad mood phase.

well, in the Astrology we learned about Moon, Mercury and Mars. if Mercury cannot access Mars for controlling the actions (or if it tries an over the top controlling), Mars gets its commands from the Moon. I guess. I tried to make sense of the Astrology. yet no new news.

I better call Johns Hopkins university and let them know to change the medical books and that all I ever needed was to toughen up! That I actually can help my metal disorder! That chemical imbalance is in my control! Wow! You should be given a Nobel prize! I never knew you could control it! Smh.... if you didn’t get my sarcasm you arnt a real Taurus. What part of THERE IS NOTHING YOU CAN SUGGEST FOR PEOPLE TO NOT BE HYPOMANIC do people not understand?? I have been bi polar my whole life and diagnosed for yearsssss. On medication and weekly talk therapy. Once a year I get hypomanic for an indefinite amount of time. In which case there is no “toughening up”! Only thing that can be done is making sure I keep taking my meds so that I dont become full blown manic and simply waiting it out. Bipolar effects your prefrontal cortex! It’s a brain disease directly effecting your EMOTIONS. Your seretonin, dopamine and oxytocin! Basically forcing a depression that is out of your control! No matter what a full and happy life I live it can happen at a drop of a bat and there is NOTHING THAT CAN BE DONE, except by the support of your loved ones and therapists. This disease causes a you feelings and rapid cycling that people with chemically balanced brain function don’t experience. It’s literally something I CAN NOT HELP, yet all of you up on my dick tryna give me suggestions. I never asked for suggestions in my threads nor do I think any of them are genuine (except for a select few). Everyone here is simply condescending. Get over your selves and drop the ego. Or gtfo

yes you can. With medication, self care and learning about your problem. Or you can bitch about it but it won't get you far. Meditation helps.


What part of “I’m doing all three” don’t you understand. Hypomania can still happen when you do all three and you can’t toughen up! I know you don’t like to admit that your wrong but go ahead and hand me a fact and I’ll shut my mouth. But so far I’m handing facts and you are handing opinions. Get over your self.

If You read my post you will see that I stated that I am bipolar. So I know what I deal with. Bitching about it won't help but if You need to insult and vent feel free. Good luck!


So if you have bipolar and experienced mania and hypomania I’m sure you’d be able to empathize with the fact that this bitchy side of me isn’t me. Nor is it “bitchy”. I am trying my best rn and that’s all I can do. And your responses are triggering but it’s a me issue not anyone else’s issue on here. I’ve been dealing with this knowingly and with a lot of research for close to the last 10 years of my life. I am not my brain disorder.

By my perception it is. It is a part of You and You won't own it until You accept it. You are more than it, Yes. I do not care if they are triggering. Life is triggering and that is a fact. I am not going to give You special treatment because You don't need it. Nor do I. Nor does anyone. And that if is offensive for me, and You are triggering my, but I will rather hit a pillow or scream than fight with You. It brings me nothing. I drink therapy 3 times a day, see two doctors, have been dealing it for a long, long time...went through a lot of states but I never denied it. I worked on me. And still am working. But I will never say Oops it isn't me, it's my brain disorder. My brain is a part of me and I am in peace with it. As @nikki said no one here owns you anything. Nor is this a forum for these kind of subjects. I am giving You my honest opinion. You can take it or leave it. This is all I have to say. I wish You all the best!

All ya’ll are idiots except for a few. And it’s really disgusting how uninformed you are with mental health. I made a post about the effects of my bipolar and the struggle I actually Be CAN NOT HELP and mofos in here telling me “you need help” and “you too messy” as if it’s a choice I’m making tonstay sick when in reality I have a brain disorder that I am TREATED FOR. And ya’ll just bashing telling me I don’t deserve love because I decided to step away from a relationship temporarily to work on getting right. Ya’ll seriously the ones who need help. I hope you don’t have a child with mental health issues one day. Because those children need love and support. Not bashing. In this culture I swear people write music about bipolar but have no fucking idea what it is nor even are diagnosed with it and this created a culture of people who think mental health is a choice. Go make the world a better place or go fuck your selves dxp. Frfr. I am gonna find another blog to share my entertainment. So over this energy on here and lack of creatives recognizing someone who merely needs an outlet for their thoughts and feelings. You all DO NOT KNOW ME IN PERSON! You just know my unfiltered internet thoughts. Just like I know NONE OF YA’ll would talk to me like you do in person. We all here to be the person in our heads. But in reality I’m a cool, calm and collected person that people love. Mofos fall in love with me FOR A REASON and I’m not being cocky here. I deserve love just like the rest of you and I truly wish you all some spirituality through positivity for once in your life instead of negativity. I’m especially surprised at the women not sticking together on here and allowing emotional safe space. ALL YA’ll living in 2006! Come to 2019 or gtfo. Bye DXP. You’re welcome for the entertainment. Have fun blowing up eachother's Ego through cattiness as entertainment. That shit gets old.


my aunt suffered from mental illness. I joke and play mean about a lot of things but this is never one of them. to be honest, you need to surround yourself with positivity. unfortunately this place is not it. it's a good thing you're doing for your health of your mind, leaving here. none of these braying ass idiots are meant to be taken seriously or provoke the slightest feeling. you need a support group, not a troupe of clowns laughing or insulting you. I wish you peace and the honest good help you require. ❤️❤️❤️

Toughen up! This is a good practice for daily interaction. As I said in my previous post in a perfect world we would all love and cherish one another and work for our mutual progress, pay attention to Nature, evolve to higher frequencies, my Scorpio ex would live me and we would have two perfect babies, Trump's wig would fall off and so on...but guess what. PEOPLE=SHIT, and that counts us in too...so chill and deal with Your issues because You have to. I will always try to pick someone up and be kind but will also kick them out because they have to stand for themselves.

It's okay 🙂

I can't really talk about the OP, as I am not her. But having my own personal experience, I can at least understand that there are things some cannot control with bipolar or BPD. Some things I will never understand, because I don't suffer from it. And I also know it is individually different for each person. I try to understand it, but I offend lack the understanding to empathize, myself. Knowing that, I usually refrain from coming off as my usual "aggressive" self. Because at the end of the day, if someone is actually suffering in their own illness, I shouldn't cause it to worsen. And I am more inclined to be a little less of an asshole, having been a direct target of someone who was in the mist of an episode that has BPD. Not that it is the same as bipolar, at all. Just experiencing it first hand as someone that was fixated on, was somewhat interesting to see.

Does that mean I am not an asshole? Definitely not. lol

Do you want to be coddled or you want to hear the truth? It's a lose/lose situation either way...if we were to coddle, you'd be saying "what don't you treat me like everyone else...my disease doesn't define me" etc etc.

Everyone has triggers, everyone has ups and downs, battling demons, majority have mental illnesses...I'm sorry I'm not going to treat you any different... because you aren't different...you were dealt more cards than most...that's it. You're smart, seem to have a pretty good head on your shoulders despite the odds and have a pretty clear understanding of what is going on with you... if you didn't, I and majority here would approach in another manner...so why do you want things to be sugar coated and be coddled for?!

But aside from that... to constantly attack people or put words in their mouths when trying to help (not about your disease) is a bit ridiculous and you do this every time you post.. hypomania or not.

We all see things differently and all we can go by is the words you have written here...we aren't doctors, psychiatrist etc...all we can do and on any other forum is give opinions, suggestions and what nots....I'm just lacking the understanding of why post here then if that's not what you're seeking?

This is what happens when a cancer puts a thread about feelz on the aqua board.


No that’s not what it is because I take anti anxiety and depression meds for a mental illness I’ve dealt with for decades.


Do you have bipolar?


Do you have paranoia and schizo tendencies?


I dont don’t have schizophrenia and so no on the schizo tendencies. But yes on the paranoia. Obsessive rapid cycling. Anxiety, depressive highs and lows. Mood changes (moment to moment.) like crying one second. Dancing the next. Being mad. Than over affectionate and loving. Losing my sex drive. Being hyper sexual. Also diagnosed with anxiety (regardless) and ptsd.


Than you have no right to claim that one mental illness is better or worse than the other. I don’t treat people poorly because of it, I don’t place my rough past on others, I don’t name call them for not being understanding.. I just don’t because everyone is going through there own emotional struggle but one thing I will do is be completely honest with someone who is being nasty to others and does not choose to be self aware.

When I was hearing voices and syncing into paranoia, I wasn’t on dxp losing it on people, I was turning to family for support and therapy. I was focusing on myself by staying away from relationships and others as well.

I refuse to have anyone feel pity on me because of what I’m going through. I’m not a victim because of it.

When did I claim that one is worse than the other?

as you said it in your text

and as far as I've noticed

the problem is:

to stop in the good times.

when we don't stop being active in the good mood phase, the brain tries to cancel them and make a compensation for all that in the bad mood phase.

well, in the Astrology we learned about Moon, Mercury and Mars. if Mercury cannot access Mars for controlling the actions (or if it tries an over the top controlling), Mars gets its commands from the Moon. I guess. I tried to make sense of the Astrology. yet no new news.


I never thought about the moon and mars without the logic of mercury! Interesting observation. And yes precisely. Thank you for asking questions with an open mind

We can only observe our own mental health. we both don’t have the same brain. So comparisons have no place here in my opinion. You either relate or you don’t. And seems you don’t relate, and that’s fine I respect that. I know what’s up and that’s all that’s important.

I apologize for the misquote!


It's okay 🙂

I can't really talk about the OP, as I am not her. But having my own personal experience, I can at least understand that there are things some cannot control with bipolar or BPD. Some things I will never understand, because I don't suffer from it. And I also know it is individually different for each person. I try to understand it, but I offend lack the understanding to empathize, myself. Knowing that, I usually refrain from coming off as my usual "aggressive" self. Because at the end of the day, if someone is actually suffering in their own illness, I shouldn't cause it to worsen. And I am more inclined to be a little less of an asshole, having been a direct target of someone who was in the mist of an episode that has BPD. Not that it is the same as bipolar, at all. Just experiencing it first hand as someone that was fixated on, was somewhat interesting to see.

Does that mean I am not an asshole? Definitely not. lol

Toughen up! This is a good practice for daily interaction. As I said in my previous post in a perfect world we would all love and cherish one another and work for our mutual progress, pay attention to Nature, evolve to higher frequencies, my Scorpio ex would live me and we would have two perfect babies, Trump's wig would fall off and so on...but guess what. PEOPLE=SHIT, and that counts us in too...so chill and deal with Your issues because You have to. I will always try to pick someone up and be kind but will also kick them out because they have to stand for themselves. Oh what I've been through...a lot of us here...addictions, self hate...trying to find the answers...and we've all emerged from the storm not knowing how...TAKE IT EASY!


Ohhhh do you are saying alllll I need to do is “toughen up” and “chill” to get over my bipolar hypomanic episode?? Why did no one ever tell me this!!! I better call Johns Hopkins university and let them know to change the medical books and that all I ever needed was to toughen up! That I actually can help my metal disorder! That chemical imbalance is in my control! Wow! You should be given a Nobel prize! I never knew you could control it! Smh.... if you didn’t get my sarcasm you arnt a real Taurus. What part of THERE IS NOTHING YOU CAN SUGGEST FOR PEOPLE TO NOT BE HYPOMANIC do people not understand?? I have been bi polar my whole life and diagnosed for yearsssss. On medication and weekly talk therapy. Once a year I get hypomanic for an indefinite amount of time. In which case there is no “toughening up”! Only thing that can be done is making sure I keep taking my meds so that I dont become full blown manic and simply waiting it out. Bipolar effects your prefrontal cortex! It’s a brain disease directly effecting your EMOTIONS. Your seretonin, dopamine and oxytocin! Basically forcing a depression that is out of your control! No matter what a full and happy life I live it can happen at a drop of a bat and there is NOTHING THAT CAN BE DONE, except by the support of your loved ones and therapists. This disease causes a you feelings and rapid cycling that people with chemically balanced brain function don’t experience. It’s literally something I CAN NOT HELP, yet all of you up on my dick tryna give me suggestions. I never asked for suggestions in my threads nor do I think any of them are genuine (except for a select few). Everyone here is simply condescending. Get over your selves and drop the ego. Or gtfo

yes you can. With medication, self care and learning about your problem. Or you can bitch about it but it won't get you far. Meditation helps.


What part of “I’m doing all three” don’t you understand. Hypomania can still happen when you do all three and you can’t toughen up! I know you don’t like to admit that your wrong but go ahead and hand me a fact and I’ll shut my mouth. But so far I’m handing facts and you are handing opinions. Get over your self.

If You read my post you will see that I stated that I am bipolar. So I know what I deal with. Bitching about it won't help but if You need to insult and vent feel free. Good luck!


So if you have bipolar and experienced mania and hypomania I’m sure you’d be able to empathize with the fact that this bitchy side of me isn’t me. Nor is it “bitchy”. I am trying my best rn and that’s all I can do. And your responses are triggering but it’s a me issue not anyone else’s issue on here. I’ve been dealing with this knowingly and with a lot of research for close to the last 10 years of my life. I am not my brain disorder.

By my perception it is. It is a part of You and You won't own it until You accept it. You are more than it, Yes. I do not care if they are triggering. Life is triggering and that is a fact. I am not going to give You special treatment because You don't need it. Nor do I. Nor does anyone. And that if is offensive for me, and You are triggering my, but I will rather hit a pillow or scream than fight with You. It brings me nothing. I drink therapy 3 times a day, see two doctors, have been dealing it for a long, long time...went through a lot of states but I never denied it. I worked on me. And still am working. But I will never say Oops it isn't me, it's my brain disorder. My brain is a part of me and I am in peace with it. As @nikki said no one here owns you anything. Nor is this a forum for these kind of subjects. I am giving You my honest opinion. You can take it or leave it. This is all I have to say. I wish You all the best!


I did not say, no one owes her anything. I simply said, that we on DXP probably can't help you because our lack of personal knowledge.

I apologize for the misquote!


It's okay 🙂

I can't really talk about the OP, as I am not her. But having my own personal experience, I can at least understand that there are things some cannot control with bipolar or BPD. Some things I will never understand, because I don't suffer from it. And I also know it is individually different for each person. I try to understand it, but I offend lack the understanding to empathize, myself. Knowing that, I usually refrain from coming off as my usual "aggressive" self. Because at the end of the day, if someone is actually suffering in their own illness, I shouldn't cause it to worsen. And I am more inclined to be a little less of an asshole, having been a direct target of someone who was in the mist of an episode that has BPD. Not that it is the same as bipolar, at all. Just experiencing it first hand as someone that was fixated on, was somewhat interesting to see.

Does that mean I am not an asshole? Definitely not. lol


You remove your ego. That’s very sweet and admirable. Thank you for sharing this

I know this isn't a Q&A, and potentially you wouldn't know how to answer this. But I am curious about bipolar. Have you, had issues with promiscuity due to maniac episodes? Where you need the closeness, and will essentially not allow yourself, but can't control yourself on cheating on a partner. I know you said, that you don't believe in monogamy, and you are into polyamory, but maybe you will be able to still answer? I know you aren't the person I am referring to. But I do wonder, if this is a potential side effect of bipolar.

Do you want to be coddled or you want to hear the truth? It's a lose/lose situation either way...if we were to coddle, you'd be saying "what don't you treat me like everyone else...my disease doesn't define me" etc etc.

Everyone has triggers, everyone has ups and downs, battling demons, majority have mental illnesses...I'm sorry I'm not going to treat you any different... because you aren't different...you were dealt more cards than most...that's it. You're smart, seem to have a pretty good head on your shoulders despite the odds and have a pretty clear understanding of what is going on with you... if you didn't, I and majority here would approach in another manner...so why do you want things to be sugar coated and be coddled for?!

But aside from that... to constantly attack people or put words in their mouths when trying to help (not about your disease) is a bit ridiculous and you do this every time you post.. hypomania or not.

We all see things differently and all we can go by is the words you have written here...we aren't doctors, psychiatrist etc...all we can do and on any other forum is give opinions, suggestions and what nots....I'm just lacking the understanding of why post here then if that's not what you're seeking?








You are making this about your self and everyone else on here. And missing the big point my friend.

No point... you're too stubborn to see or hear anything else but what you want to. Good luck...hope everything turns out the way you want but don't ever come back on here and treat people like shit like you do...most won't stand for it...me included.
