Hello everyone,
My name is David, I am 42yrs. old. and I live in Baton Rouge La. I was diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder about 10 years ago. I have been through all the typical struggles as many of you have. Like trying to find the right doctor, the right medicines or combos of medicines ect. I have been hospitalized three times, one for attemped suicide.(thank God I didn't succeed). I am glad to find this site and hope to gain a lot of information from the site and from people like you who deal with what I deal with on a daily basis. If anyone would like to talk to me more privatley about these issues, my email is davidweigeljr26@gmail.com. Looking forward to meeting and talking to you all. ~Dave~ 



Welcome to the site. It's a very warm/caring/knowledgeable community.
I too was diagnosed late in life. Am still switching meds, just did this week.
Good luck with your journey.
Chris
