Re: What bipolar really feels like
Roller coasters have a long incline to the peak and then a big drop down then up then down the upside down up then down
Finale is not like a rollercoaster tho cos I end up lower than where the ride starts at the platform.... but its little pick up from there to the station lol
Anyone else have similar or want to explain there thoughts on it?

I speak of... Emotional whiplash... The exhilarating lift, then *crack!* the sickening plummet...

Re: What bipolar really feels like
My Bi-polar is not like yours Kato.
I think I have a full-on manic episode at about every 8 years or so (Bi-polar 1)
Hyper-manic when the occasion demands it.
Occasionally deeply depressed (Dysthymic)
And just run-of-the-mill crazy the rest of the time.
As I read your posts, you seem to cycle very quickly and inconsistently.

Re: What bipolar really feels like
Hi guys,
@chemonro @Uggbootdiva @Alessandra1992 @kato
I just found this bipolarburble blog (via Twitter, @Bipolar_Blogs), and have read quite a few posts. I don't agree with them all 100% but I think they are really well writtten and honest. You may want to take a look.
Kind regards,
Kristin

Re: What bipolar really feels like
Hey @Uggbootdiva
Glad you like it, there's some good stuff there.
Sorry to hear that - I know the feeling. Try to be gentle with yourself, much harder when in that space.
Hope endures, for a journey of healing - notwithstanding pain
Take care of you please. (School back soon!)
Kindest regards,
Kristin
