This is my first time on the site. I've coped with depression for many years, but only recently have I come tohear more about bipolar.
That's a frightening word to my wife..."bipolar."
But it's more frightening to me that one instant (this week, it was looking at my bank account) and I can plummet to the dark depths and really just want to die.
I need help, but I can't bring myself to trust any member of the "medical profession" to know what they are talking about. They're just guessing at everything.
My wife doesn't understand or know what to do to help me. And I know it hurts her to see me like this. I just want it all to STOP.
Every "test" I've taken tells me that I exhibit minor bipolar symptoms (or whatever you call them,) so I'm here. Looking for support, advice, help, direction, understanding...anything to help me quash those little voices telling me...well, you know.
Thanks for reading this.
