Thanks for your videos. I also have bipolar. I've been on Seroquel and Zoloft for a long time. The Seroquel dose was so high that I was obese and could not breathe well. I decreased the dose and lost some weight and felt better. I have had manic episodes and probably many other problems caused by my SSRI. Right now I am trying out Lamictal. If it works for me, I may be able to taper off of the Zoloft. Then I'll decide if I still need to be on Seroquel.

Unless really necessary, you should stay at your first job for at least 1-2 years minimum. Sometimes it seems like things are getting worse only because you are becoming more aware of it which makes you think it’s worsening. I’ve had problems with memory and awareness for a very long time and I just deal with it. I avoid words that I cannot pronounce correctly or cannot spell. I also forget how to pronounce and how to spell words that I routinely use. It’s the neurotransmitter balance not that your brain physically shrinks.

your saving my life right now

I have memory issues also, but I contribute it to my lithium. The good totally outweighs the little memory loss I have. You seem like you are handling your issues well. Hope to see you soon. Take care 💜

Amen God Bless you! 🙏

I also see the same hallucination over and over. She shows up in my home and rarely speaks. However, I have had nonsensical interactions with her. So I totally understand. Thank you for sharing your experiences.

The thief of happiness is comparison ❤

Good to see you're back!

That's good, take a break. Take as long as you need always need to focus on yourself. Get yourself together, do what's right for you. I want you to get back to feeling better. You'll be back, we will we will wait. Love your channel

I agree whole heartedly that when you're with somebody that doesn't want to help themselves, that's bipolar, there's nothing you can do. They have their mind made up that they're either not bipolar, and it's always the other person's fault. And if you make suggestions, they only get angry and start fights.

Wow!! This stuff did the same to me i cut a 10mg in half thank God I did 5mg knocked me out i wokr up 10 hrs later felt like i was drunk,like my brain was in a fog took hours to shake it off. I thought id try a 2nd time .......same thing this drug sucks i am bipolar 1 i stopped taking it. Ty for sharing

I've been checking in to see how you we're, and I'm so happy your posting again. Sending hugs and support to you🤗✌️

Good to see you again!

Glad all is well out in Minnesota, proper sleep schedule and diet is definitely a good way to keep things stable health wise! Keep persevering 👊

I have to respectfully disagree with this video. This man was not doing the right thing by clawing his way back to her. He was in a trauma bond. She discarded him over and over. The right thing to do is walk away unless you like pain.

I couldnt wake up for work whilst on olanzapine couldn't make money got fired from two jobs, this drug is a nightmare. Whatever you do dont take it it will ruin you

I have bipolar 1 and I just want to tell you , I believe everything you say & I understand ♥

Awesome points and very relatable....hope everything is going well for you.

I identify hard with your arguments, thanks for sharing.

Take care, apreciate your videos, thanks .

Are you still in a relationship?

Im freaking loving it, it works for me, you guys gotta get stronger on trial and error, do not let docs give you a cocktail just find the one med till you need it!! from this video I get you got pharmaceutical abuse or staff, keep your brain sane, loose of memory is dangerous cause if you forget you took a dose you will double or triple up and end up intoxicated

I’m in a relationship with someone with bipolar it’s the best relationship Iv ever had. A selfish person wouldn’t last 2 min. Just love the person and forget about the illness

ahh thank you sm for this video you covered everything I was trying to understand! someone I know recently told me that the hat man hallucination came back into her life and since then she has seemed to be showing delusions she denies having bipolar but im scared she’s slipping into psychosis?

Omg the time thing. I recently was manic and I had a very similar experience with time!!! It was tripping me out. I even started putting objects in specific places too to see if they would move.

It’s demons

Do You. We will be here when your ready❤

You got this

Do what you have to do, we'll be here when you get back. Enjoy your break!

Take care. Do what's best for you. We'll be here. ❤

Im no physician, so im not trying to tell you what’s right or what you should do. It’s important to weigh what this is doing to you, compared to not using it. How do you feel without it? I dont want to see you hurting, take it slow. Many times its just ok to be you. Of course i dont know at all what you’re going through mental illness wise, and I have no idea how serious it is, but don’t let meds do more damage than help. Ill pray for you right now to turn out well, and that the right meds work for you the right way. Love, Rev. Jeff Dishong

It took me over a decade to finally accept my MDD diagnosis, went through denial, anger and self medicating with alcohol. I finally started taking antidepressants and therapy. I just scared now as I lost all my 20s and early 30s to this. Lost relationships and careers, so now am starting again at 36.

Great info! I thought I knew boundaries, but there's a lot to learn. Thanks!

My bf is in contact with me (minimally) but he's in isolation. He's been stuck in a depression (switch click on) since last July. We love each other so much. It hurts my heart that I can't fix bi-polar. He's BP2. What are some things I could do during isolation? I don't pressure him and he knows I love him and I'm here. ❤

In my experience, it seem that suggesting ANYTHING to a lover with bipolar never ends well

It seems a lot of women with bipolar illness need ir expect a partner who is always on point, perfect in every way, and is a mind reader. Basically a man with super human intuition, and more than typically submissive to her needs and or outbursts. Thoughts please?

Congrats on all your new endeavors. It’s Awesome you’re getting back into your routine even with the new move and everything

Glad everything is going alright! It seems like the transition to a new job and new state has gone well, happy for you

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Take care :)

Congratulations on 1k subs💐

Thank you for sharing your reviews on the medications. My doctor gave me a free trial of LYBALVI. It immediately made me dizzy and it knocked me out for hours and hours. Bed ridden. I’m still sleepy. 😪

Good content. I feel that insight has to come before understanding. But, bipolar, from my experience and knowledge, typically has poor insight or good insight. Most have limited insight, which is why we stop our meds ... because nothing is wrong. Then, there's also a continuum of symptoms, and people fall in it wherever they land. My most recent manic episode was in early 2018. I was manic for 4 months straight. The meds did finally bring me back to reality, but you can't really have insight when that manic. I had no idea I was hallucinating all day, all night. It took 3 years to completely stabilize. And, i still do not have insight into what exactly was going on, but I now know i was hallucinating, but sometimes I really can't tell. I only know because others told me and the docs told me, not because I had insight or understanding.

Hey there, congratulations on your video and channel. It's truly impactful for many. I resonate with your journey as I too navigate bipolar disorder and ADHD comorbidities. It's been quite the uphill battle, but I've found stability over the past year by diligently following my psychiatrist and psychologist's guidance. It's transformed my life, proving that a fulfilling, "normal" life is achievable with the right support and commitment to self-care. I want to emphasize the importance of maintaining regular sessions with both your psychologist and doctor. Never underestimate the power of this dual support system. Remember, you're never alone in this. Your resilience is inspiring, and though I'm thousands of miles away in South America, I genuinely wish you continued progress and wellness. I personally find great solace in my weekly sessions with my psychologist and monthly visits to my doctor. It's a routine that grounds me and fosters growth. With the right medication and therapy, I've been able to be incredibly productive. As an attorney, I work extensively, and yes, with treatment, it's entirely possible to live a better life. Keep pushing forward, and know that every step counts. Your channel has truly resonated with me, and I'm grateful for the opportunity to connect, despite the distance. Wishing you all the best on your journey.

Once you start Olanzapine, the longer you take it the more impossible it is to get off

Great points! You must be doing a lot of good helping others at your job with this level of insight into mental illness

It's a lot to cover and probably needs like a vid series. Good to note that smoking also affects drug levels. And, very important regarding trying to get pregnant or is pregnant.

Yeah.. Good job. Mental Health Practitioner? Like a nurse practitioner? I guess it could be countertransference. I'm glad it's going well so far. It's hard changing providers. Paying out of pocket has it's benefits, mainly confidentiality.
