The only thing to do is be honest and tell him you want him back. It's not your fault that you're bi-polar and it made you act certain ways. People who are bi-polar are definitely in need of medication. If he can't understand and respect that, you don't want him back. Trust me. The above poster is very correct, but I would like to add, go on www.Google.com Type in: Bipolar disease Print out the info and when you meet this young man let him read about it so he can understand what you have been through and he will know how to help you. Bipolar is NOT YOUR FAULT! Depression comes in all forms and well over 80% of both the U.S. and Canada have depressed people either seeking treatment or they don't know they are depressed and the stats are going up! Bipolar is usually genetic as well. So, get going, phone him and tell him you'd love to talk with him and meet at a coffee shop because you have a few things to explain to him. Bring the info with you. Hopefully he doesn't have a girlfriend, but, if he should, at least you will have settled things with him and he can understand why you were acting the way you were. Good luck!
Ask herHowever, I would tread carefully here. Implying that someone is bipolar just because they are not interested in you is going to come across as judgemental and arrogant. Better to simply ask if they are interested in you, and leave out the biploar part.
Bipolar does not cause any physical problems. If you are asking if your child could grow up and have bipolar, too, yes that is possible because it does occur in families.
It's possible, especially because of the hyperactivity, impulsivity, and aggressive behavior. These can cause the bipolar person to harm themselves or the people and objects around them.
In short, probably no Lithium is a mood stabilizing drug, which is indicative of bipolar treatment. However efexor is a serotonin and noradrenaline (nor-epinephrine) reuptake inhibitor, and is thus contraindicated in the treatment of bipolar disorder. It is thought that noradrenaline is responsible for the manic phases seen in bipolar, so a drug increasing its levels should not be given in the treatment of bipolar disorder. It is likely that efexor is being given because of the severity of the depression, and the lithium is being given to overcome the mood unstabilizing effects of it As with all things medical its probably best to ask your doctor why they gave you that combination.
It's Lovato and she was suffering from a eating disorder and self-mutilating her wrists aka cutting herself. She did these things because she was bullied in school where they called her ugly and fat. She found out while in treatment that she was bipolar. She is now out of treatment, healthy, happy and beautiful as ever!
If you can control your Bipolar Disorder with the medications, chances are that you can stay in the Navy. However, if your Bipolar Disorder becomes uncontrollable, then there is a possible chance that you cannot be in the navy. There isn't much that can be said because it all depends on how well you can control the Bipolar Disorder with your medications.
Yes Drug and Alcohol issues are one of the biggest symptoms and or results of Bipolar. People with addictions usually are bipolar and becaome addicted before they know of the bipolar because they are trying to self medicate. With Bi-polar its like your on a roller coaster. Anyone using an addiction to self medicate needs to stop and receive proper treatment from a doctor. This is from personally experience.......
No, not all women are bipolar. Bipolar is a mental disorder, just like cancer, or having lost an arm. We all have problems but women get mood swings because of PMS, not because they are bipolar.
i sure hope so. i am bipolar and i want to adopt because i was adopted
Yes if they are in Love just because they have BiPolar doesn't mean they can't do things like everyone else!!!...idiot Second Opinion (different user): Of Course! In it's more mild forms Bipolar disorder is hardly even noticeable. Especially with treatment. Even the more severe Bipolar 1 Disorder is not so bad with treatment. I'm going to assume that you are asking this question partly based on the idea that Bipolar Disorder is genetic. The Nazi's and some other countries euthanized Bipolar people (prevented them from having kids via surgical methods). If you are more accepting than a Nazi you should have no problem with Bipolar people getting married to whomever they wish. It turns out that Bipolar disorder is only partially genetic. It is largely based on the environment that people live/grow up in. For example: There are two 100% genetically identical twins. One of them is diagnosed with Bipolar disorder. Statistics show that, even though they are 100% genetically identical, there is only about a 50% chance of the other twin being Bipolar. It is not just about genetics.
its very possible however it doesnt necessarily mean he is gay
Bjt is bipolar because in bjt the conduction of current is due to the electrons as well as holes
