Do you relate to any of these signs or do you know anyone that struggles with bipolar disorder? Disclaimer please do not self diagnose as this is just a video to those who can relate
love your content!!
Hey I think it’s important to mention why it’s important not to self diagnose. This is a disorder in which the brain damages itself and needs an official doctor diagnosis
Do relate to some, but I also relate to depression signs, but I’m going to get a diagnose after a while.
I think u should take a break, I see that you upload frequently and I think it would be tiring to make these animations and voice overs. Maybe if u feel like taking a break don’t worry about us, we won’t mind.

My wife was diagnosed with bipolar disorder, medication did not help. She threw away her entire career by impulsively doing something illegal and was arrested. It was typical of her impulsive behavior that grew worse, much worse as she grew older. She died at 40 years old because of her inability to make rational decisions about her health.
Her uncle and cousin were schizophrenic. Her mother was agoraphobic. My wife's siblings had undiagnosed mental disorders to say the least. Mental illness most definitely runs in families.
@@Jointanatomy you are a menace for that
I’m sorry for your loss
Dang im so sorry. Mental illness is so hard for the person with the illness and those around us. Very sorry about your wife. Really hate to hear that. And so young. 💔
Sorry for your loss I’m also bipolar and I’m scared I won’t have a future medication doesn’t work and I feel like I’m going to die from this.

I recently got diagnosed with bipolar disorder after suspecting it for about a year and a half. I kept thinking that my brain was just trying to fool me, but I can't argue with a diagnosis. I came and watched this video again because why not. My mood episodes are environmentally triggered most of the time. Sometimes it just happens for no reason and I end up being completely unapproachable or the most talkative person. I'm both freaked out and relieved that I know I have bipolar disorder. On one hand, society probably sees me as crazy for it, but at the same time, I'm glad I finally have an answer for those many times I've been depressed without reason. I take mood stableizers now, which also helps with my ptsd. If you ever have moments where you feel awful for no reason, then look into it, I couldn't figure it out for many years and it was eating me alive
Edit: The diagnosis was VERY wrong. I got re-evaluated, I have autism
I was the same but watching this video and realising that I have bipolar triggered a massive mood swing and I was in a depressed episode for much longer than usual I did seek professional help but didn’t tell anyone for except my parents for about two years
The biggest mistake of my life
A lot of people don’t believe that I can feel this way and have bipolar disorder since I was 13 when I was diagnosed
How did it start? Can you share?
Dude i'll reassure you... bipolar is one of the least "crazy" disorders, people with it tend to have high IQs. It's not a cliche comment i'm just making to flatter you, there is overwhelming evidence for this.
Something also good about BD people is, they have an affinity for compassion and empathy! This is far from something that should freak you out.
And i relate with you on how your brain sometimes confuses itself, it could be a mixed episode, you start reconsidering your whole life's purpose to the extent of hurting yourself.
You're not alone!
i am 60 + & been dealing with this since adolescence so want to point something out, something u can do for yourselves,
notice & pay attention to sleep & lack of sleep patterns.
if i didn't get sleep , would just push on,
had been pushing for years,
well, 10 + years ago
had psychotic break, only found out after 10 days of being hospitalized & given Seroquel, i was having wall to wall hallucinations, visual (talking to people who were not there)
auditory (could not tell if a radio was on or if it was me)
i wasn't a hazard to anyone but who knows, i could've walked out in traffic or off a ledge, i would not have known,
all becuz i ignored sleep, just push on was my motto.
so, as soon as i got enough sleep to stop the hallucinations, i got off the seroquel, (if it works for u, then by all means, do what u have to) & had to quit drinking, & now i pay attention & make sure to get sleep, i use a meditation technique to relax into sleep, u can look it up, it's one part, the first part of Vipassana called Anapana, it's not a breathing exercise, it's an exercise in awareness,
you just feel ur breath entering thru you nostrils as u inhale,
then feel ur breath as it goes out thru ur nostrils as u exhale.
sounds easy, & it is,
except the mind will try to go any & everywhere
except ur breathing,
but that's the practice, not to strain or try to force ur attention, just gently feeling ur breath,
inhaling & exhaling,
thru ur nostrils,
after practicing this becomes enjoyable
& will allow the mind & nerves to settle,
& if u are in need of sleep,
this will help you to let go of whatever concerns & if u want to,
to fall asleep.

I was diagnosed with bipolar since my teenage. Spent my whole life fighting bipolar. I suffered severe depression and mental disorder. Not until my wife recommended me to psilocybin mushrooms treatment. Psilocybin treatment saved my life honestly. 8 years totally clean. Much respect to mother nature the great magic shrooms.
Congrats on your recovery. Most persons never realizes psilocybin can be used as a miracle medication to save lives. Years back i wrote an entire essay about psychedelics. they saved you from death bud, lets be honest here.
YES very sure of Dr.alishrooms. I have the same experience with anxiety, depression, PTSD and addiction and Mushrooms definitely made a huge huge difference to why am clean today.
How do i reach out to him? Is he on Instagram
Yes he's Dr.alishrooms. Shrooms to me is a natrual healer. I know a guy who has used mushrooms in the same way and they have
really helped him. mah dudes have safe
trips all.
I wish they were readily available in my place. Microdosing was my next plan of care for my husband. He is 59 & has so many mental health issues plus probable CTE & a TBI that left him in a coma 8 days. It's too late now I had to get a TPO as he's 6'6 300+ pound homicidal maniac. He's constantly talking about killing someone. He's violent. Anyone reading this Familiar w/ BPD know if it is common for an obsession with violence.

I got my diagnosis of being bipolar about half a year ago. I'm 25 now and I thought my whole life something was off with me. just to know it's a disorder is such a great relieve, and the right therapy and meditation is helping to 'normalize' a regular lifestyle. I can relate to all 10 symptoms - thank you for this video, it feels good to see that the information is out there and educating ;) I love your videos
As someone who has had these symptoms my whole life I was diagnosed recently at 30 😢
Good luck on your healing journey 💗
@@nellisnellas thank you
I'm undiagnosed but everything that I'm feeling is pointing to bipolar since 21 , am 27 now😂my brother n coworkers said I'm on my period when I'm in an episode even though I'm a man

That's bipolar
Girl what

@@loveamerica72 that's not how-
A minor note here: mood swings are also seen in people with ADHD, and the symptoms can sometimes be mistaken for Bipolar. This is why it's extremely important to have a mental health professional diagnose you.
I’m person with ADHD and I have a lot of mood swings I’m telling u that and I was diagnosed with Depressive Disorder (DD) 😓
(ADHDer here) We also have tendency to manifest depression symptoms, risky behavior and outburst of energy so 🤷 I guess the difference is the duration of the mood swings
Same, I always thought I was bipolar, but got diagnosed with ADHD instead
@@usercanalviejo2 , I took a number of courses in mental health and social work counseling. I have a good friend with bipolar disorder. She believes that she was misdiagnosed with ADHD years ago but I also heard that people can have both. I believe that with bipolar disorder the mood swings would be much more intense than with ADHD.
I think it also has to do with autism, though I might just have ADHD as well.
I'm bipolar and have been diagnosed and on meds for many years. I still have episodes of depression or mania from time to time tho. I used this video along with other resources to give my partner a better understanding of what I'm going through and I find your explanations very good. Thanks for educating!

Fernand0Oo I’m not talking to just you, I’m glad you know. I’m talking to everyone who watches the video
This is so true. I have Bipolar Disorder and I have experienced all of this. Great video.
I can relate to a lot. I was diagnosed in 1999 with bipolar 1; with rapid cycling and mixed episodes
(which is a combination of symptoms of both depression and mania; which is no fun at all). So far my symptoms have been manageable, but I've had to do many med changes along the road. I was diagnosed in a psych ward and it was also mentioned to me that there are NO two cases alike (so I wouldn't compare myself to others). That's it in a nutshell 🙃
I’m professionally diagnosed with bipolar disorder and I’ve found that theres quite a lot of mental health professionals today who’ve stopped using the terms bipolar I & II. My first psychiatrist said research has shown that it’s more of a spectrum and putting people into two boxes just doesn’t work anymore. This isn’t to say people with the differences of I & II don’t exist but there are definitely people who exist in between both sides. It’s interesting
thank you for saying this. i mean, my psych never told me straight what my diagnosis is but when i got a med cert from her i found out that she categorized me as having "bipolar affective disorder" and it got me puzzled bc all ive known this time is bipolar I & II
I’m a psych student and this is absolutely true! My teacher explained to us we don’t specifically diagnose someone with type I or II anymore bc it’s basically the same thing
My bipolar has looked like different classifications of bipolar at different times. I've had full blown mania, episodes of hypomania and depression and now I sometimes have subclinical and not very intense hypomania and mild depression.
That’s interesting , I always felt u couldn’t put anyone in a box too. My brother had bipolar and suicided and me and my mum have bipolar but I’m not sure if I really could be 1 or 2 as I’m so different to my mum and my brother , I’m not suicidal , I’m never psychotic and I get hyper mania and depression, everyone I know who has bipolar are very different
lambd01d I have gone 10 days without sleep in the past, and for the past 3 years I’ve just had hyper mania and mild depression, I haven’t been majorly depressed and haven’t been majorly manic
Who else has bipolar but is watching this just because they can?
I have bipolar 1, I watch for validation
Me, I have BD 2
Me. I got diagnosed 3 weeks ago. Bipolar 2 for the win

As a Gemini with Bipolar 1 disorder I was always confused. I have been in counseling since i was a teen and up until now, over a decade later, I'm being treated with the correct medication and therapy. For those who are reading this and struggling, do not give up. Simply call your doctor and be honest. Even tell them you saw this video and you feel as if you can relate. There is hope! Never give up on yourself. You are always number 1 💝
Sameeee, I’m also a Gemini but instead of being 1 or 2 my doctor says I’m unspecified. I’m not really sure what that means but oh well. People are always shitting on Geminis anyway bc we’re “two faced” or whatever so when people find out I’m bipolar or a Gemini they’re like ew makes sense
Gooosh I was wondering if I am gemini or just psychopath 😂
I'm a pisces self diagnosing 🤡
I’m also a Gemini with bipolar I feel like mental health issues is very common for us.

"don't self diagnose"

relatable , i always try not self diagnose myself but end up doing that
if it helps you guys, you could always tell yourself: “I suspect I have [disorder/whatever] the symptoms are there but I need to confirm w a doctor”
hopefully that maybe helps instead of saying you have the said disorder without being diagnosed? Either way I hope you guys are doing great today :D /g /pos
please move forward and trying talk to your doctor soon or ask a parent if you’re not an adult 💞

Thank you!!
I got diagnosed with bipolar 2 a few months ago. I’ve never had a full on manic episode but have experienced many episodes of hypomania. Just as you stated in the video, I didn’t correlate my sudden productivity and lack of sleep as hypomania. I thought I was just suddenly “getting better”, so I went to the doctor believing I was just a depressed and left with a bipolar diagnosis. Having the diagnosis has really helped me recognize hypomania and keep track of my mood swings while I work with my doctor to find a medication I can afford that’ll work.
My psychiatrist (Who mainly works with medication) and my behavioral therapist said that most of my symptoms are from bipolar 1, ADHD, PTSD. So I decided to watch this so I can learn more about this.
My friends always say i act "different"
I sometimes sleep 10 hours but for the past month I've slept 3 hours a day and feel very energized.
Been there. It’s either I’m oversleeping or barely sleeping. And even wake up throughout the night . Same with eating sometimes
I understand you my friend is like how you energized on 4 hours or 3 like😀Uh idk
That’s the meth
What does that have to do with bipolar?
fr same, my friend says shes concerned I have the bipolar disorder bc of my extreme mood swings, either lack of sleep or too much sleep, getting easily distracted and talking too fast-

Oh my God... Are you a John Green fan?? Say yes please😁
N how to find that someone
I was diagnosed just a few years ago and I'm in my mid-30's, so much of my hard life up to this point makes so much more sense now that I know why I acted the way I did. When at the time I just didn't understand why I was how I was. Every one of these is bang on, and I hate being this way. I'm managed with doctors, meds, and therapy but I wish I didn't need any of that and could just not be like this. I hate it so much, I'm such a burden most of the time and my family and friends don't deserve the complications I cause them, especially since I never meant to cause anyone trouble. I never asked for this, who honestly would?!
I struggled with depression, anxiety, ptsd, and now im finding out ive been diagnosed with bipolar 1. I still take medication for my ptsd, depression and sleep disorder as well as my new diagnosis medication. Its a rough journey but really puts a marker on my yearly repetitive behavior and symptoms from it as well as my other ones. They really go hand in hand and make healing difficult. Im looking forward to dicovering antianxiety medication because i didnt like how fast i was matabolizing lorazapam. I requested getting off of it due to its addictive nature.
This video is on par with everything i was told and everything that coinsides with my lifes past and possibly future behavior because lets face it, its not an over night fix. It takes a level of willingless and forgiveness .
I hope people who experience or notice others experiencing the bp symptoms can go forward without negative judgment and seek the help or suggest the idea of help, gain some peice of mind with this educational video♡
In the comment section I just keep reading more and more bad non-funny jokes. Don't people understand mental health is a serious thing.
Some respect for people who actually have the disorder.
Edit: I checked the comment section and many don't appear. Perhaps they deleted their comment or just don't have enough likes to be on top.
Legit haven't seen one joke yet
Ashley Seaboyer same idk if it’s just me. I’ve only seen comments saying don’t self diagnose
Please forgive me if I told any of the jokes that offended. It's actually bipolar humor. I swear it's a thing. We say things that make others with BD roar with laughter, but sometimes they go right over the heads of others without BD, or even horrify them. My BFF and I have a lot of inside jokes like this. When we tell them to other people with bipolar, we all laugh.
I have 5 disorders and no one cares because they think “it’s normal ohhh you’ll be fine we all feel like that”
@@user-eo5en5tm6h yeah, but it's usually pretty obvious when someone with the disorder is making the joke vs. someone who doesn't. Bipolar people actually know what it's like while people that don't often use harmful and inaccurate stereotypes, and we hate that because it spreads misconceptions about what bipolar people are like.
When you know you need help but don’t want to ask for it (me)

I will be 65 in August, I was diagnosed bipolar 2 in 2003. I do not wish this mental disorder on anyone. It is simply a mess.
I watched this video when it came out 2 years ago. I was suspecting I had MDD at the time and didn't bother analysing whether I could relate to this. Now that I've done more research and experienced new symptoms, I realised my depressive episodes cycle way too frequently for an MDD patient (I had more than 5 in the last 3 years, lasting for only a few weeks, while most MDD patients have them for months and then stay symptom-free for years). I also had a period of unusual confidence, I looked like a talkative, energetic extrovert to others, while being a quiet and shy introvert my whole life. After 2 years this video opened a new perspective on my issues, so I'll definitely bring BD into the discussion in my future visits to the doctor!
Thank you :)
I only just recently learned my mother had bipolar disorder. She had committed suicide when i was very young and i never understood some of the things she did.(from what i remember) this video helped bring things to light and made me feel like i could understand her better.

Thanks, and hmmm
Arghh you beat me to it!! Loll thanks for this though :)
Risky behavior and Intense multitasking or energy
I have at least 8 of the 10 things mentioned in the video.
2Tired4this ugh it doesn’t mean you have it
My mother experienced all of these, and I especially remember the risky behaviour and grandiosity along with irritability. She also experienced hallucinations in her early years battling BD. We had to commit her twice. I haven’t spoken to her in over 20 years, but I hope she is doing better. Certainly made for a turbulent childhood living with her. I remember mostly manic episodes and they seemed to go on for ever.
Your video was helpful and most of the ten signs of bipolar have touched my life from 4 yrs old experiencing grandocity looking back but not diagnosed until age 31. Misdiagnosed as scisofrenia(sp) at 29 yrs with wrong medications. Off of medication looking back in time in my life I remember these symptoms because of cycling every 2 yrs then slowly down to every one year. At 45 yrs I was tired of repeating counseling conversations.also having too many support systems that I decided weren’t healing me. No offense to treatments. A large family with support from them became too involved in my issues. I I had my last decompensating at 45 yrs . I caught myself without aid from my supports in an episode. I drove myself on my bike to the hospital. Told them in the emergency room that I had decompensated and needed medication. Tho I had been told that this never happens I got the help there and went to my psychiatrist for treatment and an update on my medications. I was 45 yrs then. For 18 yrs I saw on a psychiatrist every 3 months for Med checks. During this time I only worked part time. At 63 yrs old my appendix Burtsti had a mass in my colon, there were two tumors on my left and one tumor on my right kidney. I had two surgeries right away and two more in three months and one more surgery in two months. Coming out of the first two surgery I immediately got a psychologist recognizing that I couldn’t handle bipolar disorder and the surgeries mysellf. I saw her for 5 months until I moved away to be with family. I saw a psychiatrist for a year because my insurance wouldn’t pay for both that doctor and a therapist. One night a the hospital after 4 and 5 th surgeries the hospital took my medications away cold turkey. I cried all night and my body shook. The next morning my doctor came in and ask what was wrong? I told him. He went to the computer and ordered everything and made the nurses run and get it all to be given right away. I lost my confidence. My sister and Neice had to schedules my flights and hotel back to the city I had moved from for the last surgery. I’m 65 and my MD prescribes my medicine and yesterday I got a psychologist again after only seeing an aged psychiatrist. All your 10 symptoms have been known to me and I’ve experienced from age 29 to 45 having had 14 times cycled into complete episodes. I ha 18 good years with a psychiatrist. Environmentally when the hospital took my meds I had to physically recover from lost confidence and knew I had to be with family. But all the years on medication these symptoms have been treated with medication and changes when I told the doctor change was needed. Tho I know depression is in there big time these 10 symptoms were not evident as long as I stayed on my medications. Eating right. Having insomnia taking the prescribed medication every night. And if sleep was missed or short I took doctor prescribed medication the next night so there was never more than one night without sleep.
The thing is, I do want to seek professional health but I'm just completely unable to cuz my parents think this stuff is just me being dramatic or it just doesn't exist, and I have all of these symptoms and had them from more than a year, after my parents manipulated me into an engagement.
Manipulated you into an engagement......... Bipolar is either genetic or a learned behavior from early on. It does not start from something random like that.
Just because you have symptoms doesn't mean you have it. Fuck bro, my nose is running must mean I have corona.
Wow there are some shit people in the comments. They are not doctors. Please seek help if you can, all the best ❤️
Bipolar can be set off my traumatic or extreme stress I. E. Forced engagement. I suggest you seek help at least to try to diagnose.

This was way more helpful than articles I tried to read
Sort of glad I watched this as it was eye opening to my own behaviour and a good realisation of why I act they way I do. Befor this I didn't even realise I ticked every singlw box and thought I was losing it to be honest. I've booked into my doc to get this looked into asap. I always thought it was my personality to just be sleeping alot , impulsively acting, extremely talkative in hypo states and pretty much all of the boxes this video states. Thank you for this knowledge as it's already helped 1 person understand who they are.
this makes me really want to finally go talk to a specialist
same but I don't think my mom would take me
The fact that this is basically on the nose makes me confident in the diagnosis I got years ago. It’s been my normal for like ever that I don’t know whether something is “normal” or not. So I got curious to check again. For almost all my life I thought I was just depressed but didn’t understand how I could move back and forth between being really depressed to excited for no reason and somewhat neutral. I was medicated only for depression and it never really helped. I stayed in depression most of the time I think. In 2016 I went to a psychiatrist to be diagnosed with PTSD, which was caused by a trauma that occurred, but in the process figured out that I was Bipolar II. Now I’ve been properly medicated and feel neutral more than depressed and have better control on my symptoms. I’m more calm and rational about stuff too. Total game changer! But always keep in mind that meds don’t cure you they help you manage.
My hypomania is wonderful and awful at the same time. I use it to my advantage and love the amount of energy and productivity I get. But my biggest insecurity is I can’t shut tf up. I get too giddy and talk really fast. I trip on words enough already and struggle communicating because my mind goes too fast or just doesn’t process and form the information into proper sentences that make sense. I lack confidence in speaking, but still talk quite a bit. When I can tell I’m having an episode I apologize to my coworkers ahead of time and tell them what’s happening. Just so they know I can’t totally help it. It’s awful trying to fight the chatty urge and they seem to tolerate me well when I do. Lol
People seem to think that mania/hypo-mania is a good thing. I'd take a depressive episode over a manic episode any day.
Don’t fight the chatter. If you ever want to talk my non judgmental ear off, I’m here.
I honestly feel the exact same way you described... hopefully I can get a diagnosis after I leave home haha
I feel the same way. I was diagnosed with depression all throughout my teen years because my doctor at the time was convinced that if I showed no signs of aggression or extreme anger, I couldn’t possibly be bipolar. I’m really glad I switched. The new doc actually listened to what I had to say and said I was a clear candidate for BD and took me off anti-depressants and put me on mood stabilizers. It’s honestly changed my life. Not just getting the help and medication I need, but the facts helped too. Just being aware of what the problem was has made all the difference.
I completely understand what you mean about having bittersweet feelings about hypomanic episodes. While it can feel really great to get so many things done; finish that art project from last month, clean the house, go shopping, write a story, etc. It definitely has its drawbacks. I too get overly chatty, REALLY loud, and what I like to call ‘slaphappy’. Everything is funny. Everything. Even if someone tells me that someone died. I swear it’s like being on drugs or something. I suddenly get very social and make plans that when two weeks from now, I’m going to hate going to because I’ll be in a depressive stage again.
I’m grateful to my new doctor for helping me find the truth and I highly recommend getting second opinions to anyone whose doc may not be listening to everything you’re saying.
Hmmm good to keep in mind. My family has mood disorders and I got diagnosed with depression and I’m medicated... however I do still get into depressive dips.
My wife has Bipolar disorder type 2 & she still struggles with it but getting better thanks for making awareness of this we found it very educational so thank again Lol
Thank you sooo much for this video. Because tbh I was kinda worried about some of the sudden changes in myself both physically and mentally and was kinda suspecting if I actually had bipolar after doing a little study on it since they weren't so detailed. Tbh it could have ruined my whole damn life and even my career and everything. But fortunately now that I can know about these symptoms in details ik that I'm fine and I don't have any bipolar. Some of the symptoms did match in the very beginning but they when knowing about them in details it shows a huge gap. I do have depression and a little anxiety issue but none of them are serious or major and I constantly counsel myself and try to keep my mental health as good as possible. Whatever the case, thank you so much! May Allah bless you and give you happiness and success so you can keep helping more people this way!☺️☺️ Now I can kinda rest in peace knowing that I've got nothing to worry about and try to look into my mental health more often to make sure I'm fine.☺️ You greatly helped me☺️☺️ now I love even channel even more than I did before
I was dating a bipolar guy. I tried to support him on depression, I tried to support him on mania. But the truth is that on his mania crisis, he was extremely mean to me. He was nice and tried to conquer people he didn’t know. It seems he was in love with every single unknown people around him. But for me, harshness. Turn out that while he was on a maniac event, I was getting depressed. He: euphoric to people in general, and aggressive to his family and me. And I was full time crying seeing my self-esteem turning into ashes while he didn’t care because of the crisis. Now we broke up and sometimes he says he can’t forget himself for being so mean, and sometimes he says I should consider he was on mania crisis. I personally consider my well-being.
Im really sorry to hear that
No. If he knew it was because of his mania he should have got help. It's hard to control it but it is possible. But making the comment "consider I'm on mania crisis" seems like he doesn't want to control it. You come first. You can't save everyone.
same condition with me... i cant understand what i have to do for him n even he not ready for once time checkup.. but being a friend i want to see him happy and mentally strong...
@@kaleemullahsoomro3666 I tried really hard to keep a friendship with him. But things were always getting worse. When he was depressed, I helped him. When he were on mania, he treated me like shit. Turned out I put an end to our friendship three weeks ago because he abused me. He is on mania and acts as if nothing happened. I am sad and crying everyday. But my decision is the best (in my case). I am not getting any close to him again.
@@monicaslv323 same here.. he refuse me to go for checkup.. he not ready for it.. he not value me.. even not replay.. but i want to see him normal.. i wish i could do good for him.. but he not understadning it..some time behave so lovely and some totally ignoreable

To anyone dealing with mental illness, there is absolutely nothing wrong with you. You are beautiful in your own unique ways and deserve the world.
Thank you so much I hope you know how much your words can affect others💗
I try so hard to control it but my problems and mood swings are very hard for the people around me. It’s rough on them and that increases the guilt further.
Rich Robinson don’t feel guilty, being bipolar and having a mental illness in general isn’t a choice. There will come a day when you will find peace with yourself and your bipolar disorder, I know you will, even if it sometimes doesn’t seem that way. I believe in you.
Yes. Having (C)PTSD is in no way, shape or form your fault.
Yes, except when in relationship you said < I love you, you mean the world to me > then go to sleep with another person for self interest and broke the heart to an innocents partner for life.., This is my story to the world
I was diagnosed with clinical depression when I was hospitalised at 14, they put me on antidepressants which didn’t do shit and sometimes made me feel worse. Until I was 17 I’d go through periods of just being full of energy, talkative, heightened sex drive, impulse and overall in a good mood. I’d then go dangerously depressed and suicidal. I think I’ve had a manic episode a few times. One time when I was 15 I snuck out the house at 1 in the morning (this was an impulsive decision not planned) and went to meet my ex boyfriend who was camping with some friends. My mood was just really weird as if I was drunk, I was just laughing, talking loads, sitting on my ex’s lap and kissing him (even though I wasn’t interested in him). My behaviour that night was just weird and not like me. I remember waking up in the morning feeling so embarrassed and confused. Anyway, when I was 17 the doctors came up with one last solution as an alternative to putting me back in hospital , they gave me mood stabilises/anti psychotics which are known to treat bipolar. They worked wonders. I still struggle and show clear symptoms of both depression and bipolar and when I don’t take my mood stabilises for a few days (like when I run out) I go back to exactly where I started as if no improvement was made. Today I’m still diagnosed with clinical depression but I believe I’ve been misdiagnosed and I’m unsure what to do about it. I’ve never told the doctors about that time when I was 15 or any other similar experiences and behaviours because I feel ashamed. Not only that but I’m scared they won’t believe me and take me seriously.
you wont be able to be diagnosed properly if you dont become transparent with them
I think u should be honest with the doctors and tell them. I wish u the best ❤️❤️
Be honest with the doctors, if you are doing things out of character that's import information and you may have another personality disorder instead, good luck out there 🖤
Wasn’t a fan of antipsychotics nor antidepressants. Medication just isn’t for me. Just made me feel like a zombie. I’m doing my best to manage without medication, and so far it’s going well.
@@EM-wo6wf I suppose it’s different for everyone. If I don’t take my meds my life turns into a rollercoaster of feeling great which sounds good until you do stupid shit , downs where I go suicidal, anger, paranoia, getting big life changing ideas. Let’s just say that I’ve been on meds since I was 14, it took awhile but finally on some that improve my life at least a little
Hope you know how much I love your videos , crying to your vids is a mood 💗
This video is very informative, it is quite general so that most people can understand. I know a close relative that has been diagnosed by a healthcare professional with bipolar, and is now taking drugs to control this problems. This is a serious mental illness.
I recently got diagnosed and I completely relate to all of these
I was diagnosed with this recently and it’s crazy how accurate this video is.
I really appreciate your videos. Our minds can be disorganized just like dishes that are piling up and to be cleaned.. I can wash my dishes and put them away just exactly the way I can with any physiological disorder for that second.maybey that hour or day.. do not victimize me and say I have a disorder. The only people with a disorder permanently are people that are permanently missing a arm or a leg
I’m bipolar 2 and my husband has to keep reminding me of what I’m like unmedicated because I always try to convince him I’m cured when I’m level and should come off my meds. I’m very lucky to have him because he manages to say it with kindness and understanding.
Please don’t self diagnose in the comment section.
I understand if you have these, but go to a professional and don’t self diagnose.
Tellestina I actually tried to get professionally diagnosed but the doctor said, “What’s that” (It’s hardly known) Sometimes Self Diagnosing can be a step into getting professionally diagnosed. But yes,Please do not self diagnose.
Eric Cartman actually honestly, you know if you’re diagnosed with ADHD or whatever. It helps me with weed! It brings me to my happy place.
When I spoke to my gp he told me I would have to attempt suicide if I needed help immediately
I only have three moods that i show to people:
-emotionless face/eyes.
-laughing out of no where.
-anger.
The moods i go through when im alone:
-motivational mood.
-depressive.
-unintentionally staring at something for sometimes hours thinking about anything.
-a clean freak.
-energetic self-loving adventurer.
- “i’m a god, im so pretty, im so good at being myself”

I've had Bipolar 1 since I was diagnosed at age 7, here I am 20 years old and still dealing with it. I've been on so many medications for this. The mania is the worst of it. When my body's tired my mind races to stay awake. I'll lay there without sleep for almost the whole night. I'm on really good meds now. I also am level 2 on the autism spectrum, so not only is having bipolar hard, so are social events and having my routine change constantly.
That's great that you have really good meds. I'm a bit bipolar though 5 6 and 7 aren't any on my list/condition. I have mood swing, with some disorder and suffer from depression that often recur through out my days. I stopped my meds for a year now and my moods get worse and I tend to isolate myself, either not sleep or have 13 hour straight sleep. I'm a bit autistic but I guess high-functioning but my main issue is my moods, getting too perked up then getting totally depressive.
Man that sucks. I just hope that you keep on taking care of yourself. :/
Remember how strong you actually are. Just putting this out here. Remember to pat yourself on the back that you’re able to live with hardships and you still come out strong.

Sorry if u dont think this is accurate but that sounds a lot like deppression. Maybe try researching it to look into it a bit more
I do have most of the symptoms mentioned. I scheduled an appointment with a specializes dr. Thanks for the awareness.
Anyone else see things in the corner of their eyes? I’m not talking about a once a month “oh I saw something in the corner of my eye last night haha” I’m talking about on a daily basis. And you never really feel safe? Even if you’re in an empty room with the person you trust the most with a door and a million windows to escape from if anything did happen? Or you always feel like something is watching you even if you’re the only one in the room and you know it? Because I do. Especially feeling someone/something watching me. It’s getting so bad that I’ll have anxiety attacks from it, and I’ll just walk around the house feeling unsafe no matter where I go. And I used to loveeee having the lights off while sleeping, or doing things alone. But now I’m just terrified of it. And I sound like a child but yes I am afraid of the dark because of this. And it’s also caused me to not be able to sleep sometimes.
Edit: also, I have constant mood swings. I could be happy one moment then angry the next, or angry the first moment and then I cry so hard I can barely breathe and my stomach starts hurting.
I get angry easily, annoyed easily, I do a lot of things wrong or I make a lot of accidents that can really affect my mental health. I sometimes feel suicidal but not to the point where I actually try to end my life, even though I really want to sometimes. I don’t get a lot of sleep, I now take this melatonin medicine stuff but before that it would take me like 3 and a half hours to fall asleep and I’d wake up super early, this also doesn’t matter but the only Dreams I ever get are nightmares or frightening/overwhelming (if that’s the word) Dreams. The last Dream I had that I can remember was a few days ago and someone was trying to break into my house. And I’ll also sometimes have random bursts of energy or very quick loss of energy and hope.
lol do what you want with this info I’m gonna go cry and eat cereal
GOODBYE HAVE A GOOD DAY 💃
Sometimes I wonder what if my grandma who I completely love I wonder how I would escape or get worried she’s gonna kill me
Yes, yes me tooo I thought I was the only one, oh my gosh...hi!
I’m shook. You literally described everything that happens to me. All of that. Especially the feeling unsafe in my own home by myself and the dark parts. The funny thing is I can’t sleep unless my room is pitch black but sometimes my mind wanders and then I have to watch anime so I can have my mind on something enjoyable before I crash.
YES!! ALL THE TIME
Yea I have extreme insomnia and paranoia and Im starting to see things I'm scared. Maybe an affect of trauma.
Mom says i'm faking, Dad left like 7 years ago and i still don't have enough money to afford an appointment at the doctor :')
There there, dont listen to her, you will get what you need later, but dont let she decide if you have or not something you and them cant diagnose, I hope you can go check if things are right, hope you have a great day!
That's so sad hope everything will be fine soon,
It's so crazy to me that there are people who can't go to the doctor for free omg i'm so sorry for you
im so sorry
ALL factors contribute our mood and psyche. Dont blame ur mom. Trust in Lord Almighty and pray for stability in life. Dont pray specific things u see on ytube. Just relax and enjoy the moment, strive to get better, live with mom n friends, forgive everyonen all.
thanks to this video i went to a professional and got diagnosed with bipolar 2 disorder

thanks! 👀
I thought I had ADHD but now watching this video it makes me think that I have Bi polar because every thing you have described here perfectly describes the cycles that I go through. I'm getting diagnosed next year as I'm on a waiting list for multiple things to see what I do and don't have.
Lots of my family members have this disorder. I would like to tell you that it is truly sad to live with this disorder, and for those who are obssessed with having a disorder without showing any signs is even more sad because people suffer badly from this.
My sister one committed suicide, my mother also pass, I was suffering on silence until I was 45,sad thing is that I take my meds.this is the fourth day that I'm missing one of my med,is through mailing Rx,I wish that there were more caring, on the health workers,this is real 😢.
I'm terrified. I have expressed all of these symptoms at some time in my life, most of them on a weekly or monthly basis. Friends and family have hinted (and joked) that I might be bipolar but no one, including myself, took those claims seriously. And, coming from an absuive/toxic home and family I know that if I did get diagnosed with bipolar disorder it would fuel their accusations of me "being crazy" and find a way to lock me up in a pysch ward. All I've ever wanted is to be normal. I feel there is something more to my suffering in the past and in the present day, but I think I would fall apart if it were all confirmed. Both of my older siblings have severe ADHD, all my siblings and me have been tested for autism as well. Although I am not autistic or ADHD, psychiatrists have noted that I display similar symptoms/habits but no official diagnosis was made. However, I do have anxiety, depression, and C-/PTSD (diagnosed). I guess I'm just venting here. Thank you for reading this far.

Don't let you family gaslight you and make you feel crazy. My mom is. Narcissist and family made me the Scapegoat so I know about feeling crazy when you're the only one. Sounds like you tried to diagnose what's going on and try to look at your environment. Could be some kind of condition but conditions like adhd and anxiety/depression or maybe even OCD could all be conditions from your environment growing up and its how your body and mind responded. Therapy helped me the most but I know I need more. If in person therapy Is too much, try better help or something online as they let you have text or call sessions. They make you fill. A questionnaire and then match you with a specialist and you can swap them out if you don't like them
excellent grammar school type of presentation!
I’m bipolar and have been diagnosed and on meds for 2 years . I still have short episodes of mania and depression from time to time . I used this video to make my friends and family aware about my situation
I was diagnosed with this at 10 years old and never knew that this was literally everything I've been dealing with my whole life 😂😂
@@KocoasKitchenTV Yes why shouldn’t I? That’s like telling someone with depression they can’t laugh your excused child
I was diagnosed with type 2 when I was 4. Also the DSM is leaning on merging the two because the differences of just “oh one is less so than the other” is kinda weak.
Glad to hear they're looking at it again. I personally think it's a spectrum. If you're diagnosed with full mania, ever, it becomes BD type 1; if you've ever been delusional in your illness, it becomes "with psychotic features." My cycle usually resembles type 2 and I'm usually not grandiose, but because I have been that extremely ill once or twice, I'm "1 with psychotic" for life. -_-
Candy Wolff yes like many mental disorders it is a spectrum, however I’m not sure if renaming it as a spectrum disorder is part of the merger
I work in emergency psychiatry as a nurse so I typically see the more severe end of bipolar, I can understand why they separate the two. But I agree with the previous poster that it’s more of a spectrum.
@@ninjaexitonly Thank you for your service. I'm sure you've saved many lives.
I'm not only the Brain Club president, I'm also a client. 🤣 I want to get into peer support. I've taken the courses, but the pandemic has made it difficult to get practice hours. I really want to do support for families when their loved ones get hauled off during screening/PESS, but my case manager doesn't think I'm up to it. ):
Definitely more of a spectrum my mom is type 1 and significantly more severe then what type one would imply. (Albeit from what I’ve researched it’s about the worst case scenarios there is for bpd) like she’s just chronically ill and has been in a couple month long state of mania with psychosis. And I think that’s like a bit different then 7 days. (Not trying time compare peoples struggles to invalidate or anything I just think examples of worst case vs best case scenarios really emphasize a spectrum)
This really helps! I take classes about this stuff to become a therapist or doctor to help yk so videos like this help me learn faster then having to resche about it
You should become a clinical psychologist Instead, In that course you learn about mental disorders,
The human behavior and brain, and help people with depression, and Bipolar and stuff.
I am *NOT* saying you should change what you wanna become, But looking at your statement
I feel like u should become what i said. ( In my opinion )

This video was extremely helpful with my depression. Thank you for opening up my eyes and making me more confident about myself!
Very well done..l am 63 now and was diagnosed at 26...xx
Beautiful explanation
I remember I ran through this list quicker then a kid in a candy store. At one point I hit my breaking point and called my dr. I knew I needed help, I knew something was wrong with me because I couldn’t even control or handle myself anymore. When I was diagnosed it was the happinest/saddest day of my life. I finally knew what was wrong by the road to becoming stable was going to be hard, but a year into it and I think I’m on a decent path. I’m not prefect but I feel better and that’s what matters.
If you feel like you may have bipolar disorder I really encourage you to seek help. You can’t do it alone, you need a team to stand by your side to help
You get on track. Don’t feel ashamed, don’t feel discouraged. You deserve to have a healthy balanced life!!!
You can do it! ♥️♥️⚾️

Thank you for this! Im talking to my therapist today about possible BPD
Yup. I've been doing more and more research on bipolar disorder, and my dad hits basically everything. I know that he needs to actually see a professional to be sure. I hope he does because I can tell he's been going through a lot.
