Sign 101: You're in mania & write 100 signs of bipolar... Just kidding. I'M SO HAPPY you made another bipolar video
😭💀💀 I would have either started the list and quit after #5 or would have ticked myself off recounting the number of symptoms I listed. 😂😂 Such a love/hate relationship with my bipolar.
I just was told I’m bipolar last week and I’ve been a psych nurse for 3 years! It’s crazy how you can work in a field and not even notice it in yourself. Holy shit this is soooo spot on..
Yes been a mommy since I was 16 and taking care others is really I know smh like you I can’t believe I didn’t notice my mental health 💔🙏🏾
This disorder has destroyed my life so many times... but I always rebuild. In a depressive episode currently praying for better days .
Are you still surviving? You're not alone I've destroyed my life over and over again but I'm still and grateful. Sending love!
I'm praying that you feel better.
@@fatumataholloway4897 thank you. I came out of that episode, but then on a year and a half later, I fell into another one. Fighting it once more. Waiting for the day when this one passes too. Thank you for thinking of me.
@@BipolarPerson I am. Things are rough right now, but they have gotten better for a while between then and now. They’ll get better again. Just have to get through it.
I noticed a few signs that me and my dad both have that aren't mentioned in this video (we are both bipolar)
1. Being UNREALISTICALLY competitive, like you always have to one up other people in competitions or you feel a deep sense of shame.
2. (This goes with the body temperature thing) Sweat an unrealistic amount when exercising in mania. Like we go to the gym and people accuse us of swimming in a pool after we're done our workout
Actually, weirdly enough, when i exercise with mania I barely sweat, but when I exercise depressed I sweat twice as much
does anyone else constantly feel sick? like nausea? regardless of what/how much i eat i Always feel like i’m about to throw up. accompanied by hot flashes or cold flashes and lightheadedness.
I can relate
Yes!!!! Omg yes..
Yes!
I can relate
wait that's a bipolar sign? woah
I keep forgetting that I'm bipolar and I feel like I need assurance. This is definitely a great reminder. Thank you so much! Emotions are a huge rollercoaster for me.
I can’t express how much I relate to this
I should probably get a diagnosis...
Selena, you must get diagnosed. The more you wait, the longer you suffer. You can live with it with good outcomes. I'm 69 and was diagnosed early in my teens. I'm still here 😃!
Christine Briguglio this was really sweet to see! I know this wasn’t for me, but thank you :)
Christine Briguglio awww this is so sweet
@@christinebriguglio3802 i'm probably not going to because I don't want to be labeled as bipolar. it's extremely stigmatized
This is the most validating video I have ever watched in my whole life. Thank you for existing
OMG. This sums me up to a tea. No pun intended!
Same
I was misdiagnosed as ADD. Then, years later, I was diagnosed with Bipolar. I will die with the disorder, but I will not die OF it. It tends to run in families. Thank you for making this. So so much.
Seroquel is EXTREMELY addictive. When I went off my skin was crawling, chills, sweats and full body tremors. No sleep for 4 days. It is the worst thing I have ever experienced.
Seraquel is EXTREMELY addictive!
I can identify with every single one and have recently been diagnosed with Bipolar. Your videos are so relatable thank you for making them, they are so helpful.
Sometimes life totally sucks and has absolutely no meaning or value.
Thank you for being so informative! I never know how to explain my bipolar disorder and you do it so perfectly
i agree. i could never explain what I was going through. I began to believe that I was actually going crazy... always have a tug of war in my head with my emotions vs boundaries.
Dude, the hyper correlative thing. I feel dat ♡
I have bipolar and DID and I am a Christian and I am so happy i found your channel!
My best friend has the exact same diagnosis. Stay strong, friend, and know you're not alone! Xoxo, a loving DID ally
Same here!❤️
Same here!
When I was manic I actually did shave off all my hair. Good times.
haha me too! even shaved my eyebrows off lol
I shaved my head in 2017 and saved out my natural hair color, i loved it! This summer i bleached it in a hypomanic episode 🤦 HATED IT! (So many times my family warned me) shaved it off again and growing it out again 🙈😂
I've done that too, Kat. I find that drinking stimulating drinks starts me off pulling hair. Caffeine is out, decaf is in. No more of those can drinks either. They mess so much with your moods! So much better without stims. Try it!
I just shaved my head on Sunday! I also did in 2014 😂 I wonder what my therapist is going to say
I decided it would be great to cut my hair with kitchen scissors and color my hair with sharpies....
I was just diagnosed with bipolar today finally though I was pretty sure I had it before I was diagnosed lol. Thank you for making this video, it makes me feel really validated ❤️
Lol, everyone thought I was on drugs (apprently my personality is that of someone who's just taken drugs, I was talking to some guy who had just taken speed and everyone but me could tell he had just taken drugs, I just thought I had met my partner in crime) so people just say I'm high on oxygen.
when i finished the video .. i literally wanted to cry .. u just described my personality !
Trust me I know what you mean with the "you don't know my mental illness" reaction when people say "oh yeah I got that too" but I've found that everyone has something and most people are depressed on a level. I used to react the same way until I realized that I have no idea what this person feels when they're alone, and this could be them opening up about a serious problem. Just always be open to people and hear them out like you'd want them to hear you out when it comes to this sorta thing.
I was about to write that depersonalization is the scariest part of bipolar, and then you said that exactly. I didn’t know what it was when it first started happening to me, which made it even worse. It’s such a trippy feeling!
This video is incredibly well done. Hooray for the next generation of bipolar energy! My generation wasn’t able to articulate our illness so well. It’s our superpower! 🎉
Never feel that reading the Bible is abnormal or praying for strength is either , but grandeur is probably the biggest moments of visions and suspicions with bipolar ! Please keep posting as Bipolar is making lives all over the world an absolute struggle and your input is complimentary to that cause , Thank you
I don’t take medication for my bipolar so the dream thing is super spot on
I get so exhausted with the dreaming. Sometimes I don't like going to sleep but I don't want to stay up either. It feels like I don't get a break. I'm off meds too.
HOLY SHIT. I'm glad my bipolar was never as bad as this. It's like your brain is creating its own cocktail of hard drugs. Respect to everyone who deals with this and keeps on fighting, as well as their family and friends who are patient and supportive.
Sign 39: i am just big music enthusiast also it helps if i am sad
i wish there was a male version of you because m/f hormones influence in different ways
Thank you so much i don’t have access too health care right now so watching your videos has helped me understand myself right now
I'm going to be purely honest here, most farma products are not to cure ilness but to control that ilness tone it down sometimes! In reality you need to look alternative medicine, but investigate spiritual alternatives, resonance meditation! I'm a guy with convulsions so I know in a way what is like to not have control over your mind without some type of medicine! Sucks but I want my alternative medicine anyways!
Good luck to you!
Holy Crap! I wish I had been diagnosed when I was younger! I walked out of my 10 year marriage to a wonderful and patient man. That was 8 years ago and I've been beating myself up ever since. But when you mentioned breaking up with someone you still love because of the damage you can do to them (paraphrasing here lol) I remember thinking that, while I was married.
I'm now in my 50's but I totally remember and relate to about 90% of everything you said. Some of what you've said had actually brought me to tears.
I've always felt not quite right, in and out of therapy my entire life, then in 2019 I was diagnosed with bipolar, and yes, like you said, I too was in denial for the longest time.
I'm so happy that you popped up on my UA-cam page! ♥
Well at least you can work on yourself. And he can move on with someone who isn’t going to do that to him.
i haven't commented in a while lizzie but I
truly thank bipolar guy here lov u thxs
I was recently diagnosed with Bipolar NOS But after doing more research I'm pretty sure I have Bipolar ll. I get these weird burst of energy where I feel the need to clean my whole appartment or write out a whole journal, but these episodes only last like 1-3 days before I drop down so low in the depts of depression, which can last weeks... I also do a lot of stuff impulsively from spending money I don't have to hooking up with a bunch of guys and have a string of failed relationships... Like I hook up with them, but them end of feeling used because I'm not really sure why I hooked up with them in the first place... I haven't really been able to distinguish when I am manic because the depression just seems so so severe. Most days I have no eneregy and literally have to force myself out of bed... I want to run or take my dog on walks, but I'm just so exhausted all the time... Doing simple tasks like showering or brushing my teeth or hair just seems so difficult. 😩 My emotions are also so intense. I can go from being really happy and excited to extremely angry and upset in matter of minutes. I feel like I have a lot of mixed episodes where I'm not sure if I am manic or depressed? Like sometimes I just feel like crying and crying for hours because I don"t know whats wrong with my brain. 😭
for a long time i thought i've had bipolar, the more i learn the more i'm sure the only problem is if i go to a doctor i'm scared they'll just laugh me out their office.
i run 17 miles and was proud. others were like: wtf.
right now i can't even do the dishes
Thank you so much. It was quite a surprise to realize i'm bipolar too. I had no idea even what it was. Nothing in the way i live can be specified as normal and you explained it all. I'm enjoying my mania doing all the crazy stuff and when the depression comes at least i won't fall again into my fictional fears and laziness. Thank you again, you are great.
Ive had old coworkers ask me if i were bipolar, after i showed them my bedroom remodel i did at midnight the day before work. Ive always wanted to go get tested, and after watching this video im highly considering it. Ive impulsivly shaved my head, i have the craziest dreams where ive killed people, or ill be getting ready for the day only to wake up and have been asleep the whole time. there are so many parallels. not to mention the relationship aspets and spotting connections in stuff. I heard a song once and went to the library to get a book and was putting post it notes in the book like a crazy person making connections. i related to almost everything youve said, thank you for this video. hopefully this will help other people like its done for me.
Your videos are very beneficial...I am bipolar and I live in a country were there isn't any awareness regarding mental illness.
Thanks a lot.
I am writing but on my son's i guess google. I was diagnosed for almost 20 years as chronic depresión. I don't know if by a cynderblock hitting me in the head and now being in menopause has made things worse. I had to seek a psychiatrist because felt way out of control this few months. He said he things i am bipolar 2. It was in a way a relief that at least i now knew i had something with a name and that made more sense. One thing that i notice maybe 4 years ago is that it felt like everyone, relatives and movie stars, aged and that i somehow was not present when that happened. It was like i came from another planet after years and everyone older, their kids. Really weird.
Yup! Bipolar II here and that about sums it up!
This video was so relevant and validating. Happy I found your channel. ❤️
Also after watching this video I realized I need to seek some sort of professional help. I been in denial for 10 years and life has been a roller coaster
I'm listening to this list as I'm purging old articles I haven't read and have no plans to, reorganizing my bookshelf. Love you, Lizzie - you put words to how I feel. Bless you!
Wow, a week feeling like a year! Sounds insane! I do have vivid dreams occasionally and am a super excited and happy a lot of the time xD I actually have a problem with cutting people out but I think, for me, that is more to do with commitment issues and teen hormones xD Loved this video! Helped me learn about Bipolar! Also, what is the background music? It's super uplifting and made me even more happy lolz!
You are doing good job .....but you are talking very fast ..can you make script or writting it ..also please help me for bipolar type 2 ..
Hi Lizzie, you're amazing!
i’m 15 and my therapist recently told me i could possibly be bipolar. i have a really strong history of depression in my family and other mental illnesses. i have a lot of these symptoms but my episodes are usually shorter and i’m often more manic. this entire thing stresses me out. fuck.
I go to bed and take my meds at 10 p.m. LOL, I would rearrange my furniture in my child hood bedroom. Here where I live now there is only one place for my furniture. We love you Lizzie!!
The way you describe depersonalization is SOOOO much more terrifying than i could ever describe it.
I never, never enjoyed a youtube video and took it it so personal, or related to it so much, as I did this one. You are so awesome. If this is manic...I don't care...No one understands and I can't explain it the way you just did. Thank you. PS. It is past 1 in the morning and my whole family is sleeping, but I still feel the need to fill my brain and understand whats going on with me. Thanx for who you are!!! Jeremy
Yes. Thank you for this. Relate to all this with my rapid cycling bipolar two. Sharing with my mother.
So true i write alot
I can relate to at least 95 of these but SO spot on!. OMG, THE SEROQUEL! I'm off meds but I use it to sleep, it can drag me into depression though. The projects n jobs 😣I wish I could send this to my friends n relatives because I feel like nobody gets it. They wouldn't watch it out though. I always question my diagnosis but sometimes I look at things like how well I function on barely any sleep sometimes or the fact that seroquel will knock me clean out if I'm depressed or normal but can't even make me fall asleep when I'm really hypomanic. I CANNOT STAND ppl telling "everyone feels that way", n " that's normal". I'm like...does it keep you from life? Its like same equation, different values. You're 2+3, I'm 20+30😕 Thanks for making videos we can relate to. It helps
This is my daughter. It’s so sad to see her struggle. I hate this disease. I really feel for those who have it and especially their loved ones. It drains you. I never wish it on anyone
OMG, be careful if you go on Seroquel! It caused me to sleepwalk for the first and only time in my life, which put me in some very dangerous situations.
Hey Lizzie! I'm so glad to find your channel. I recently got my diagnosis of bipolar II, recently converted from Protestantism-->Orthodox Christianity, and am also vegan. What are the chances?! Thank you for sharing this raw content about bipolar. Makes it feel less lonely on this journey. May God bless you and I wish you lots of success with all your YT work!
Derealization started for me at 7 ... I remember it like it was yesterday ... how about when your going in your day ... and all of a sudden ... bam! ... it feels like this is a dream & what have I been doing for years ... that's scary ... but I tell myself I'm real ... I'm here & then I'm ok.... it really feels like the feeling you get with daja-voo, but it hasn't happened before it just feels like the same type of feeling.
Bipolar 1 with mixed mania
Plus BPD, GAD, ADHD-MIXED type severe with meds. My memory sucks, & seems to be plumiting, I'm scared of dementia & Aleztimers as I'm creeping up on 38 ... I try to remember life before 30 ... how carefree, yeah probably impulsive a lot of the time ... but nothing that hurt me. Childhood shit hits you in your 30's... & am living proof. I'm in my bachelor's for Psychology, my niche is mental & Personality disorders. I'm scared I won't make it ... I've been studying daily (research is my hobby) for the last 6 yrs. When my daughter was 2 1/2 we started to have her tested ... I wanted to know what all these top doctors were talking about so I dove in... fell in love with the profession ... love neuroscience too ... getting to the point I'm at now, has been extremely difficult... not just from my own mental B.S., but because there are always HUGE damn mountains in every semester that make finishing almost impossible... last semester it wasn't unusual to pull 3 all nighters with about 7 hrs total of sleep in those 3 days ... I had to withdraw from my dream Universurty in tears, because I can't handle 3 deadlines a week, & they don't offer 16 week normal semesters like my old college.
Failure is a huge thing in life I beat myself up for ... like you said before ... people think you can just get over it ... you can't & will always be this way.
The healthcare system is fucked in America...
Mental illness should triumph everything medically ...
Sure a broken arm needs attention, I get it ... but mental states are & should be a number one concern ... yet it's not.
So derealization is like feeling like u seen it in a dream before
I feel sorry for the ones who has Bipolar. Good video, Liz. I hope you will hang in there. God bless. Stay strong. 😌
Finally one of ur videos with no dislikes yet lol! I like your pendant.
So true, a different perception of time: it feels like I have so much going on, even if I can't say for sure what I did that day!!
Hi, I am diagnosed with bipolar disorder, but I wanted to know if crying and laughing at the same time is a sign of a mixed eposide or a sign of biopolar in general.
i do that. most of the time it’s usually frustration. i laugh when i’m frustrated and cry sometimes. but yea it is just a bipolar in general thing. or it could be a mixed episode if your crying for no reason or bc your sad and then laughing just bc and you feel insane
Literally the most relatable video I’ve ever watched, i have all 100 all these signs, might ask my therapist about this lol thank youuu for helping. I love your videoss❤️
My teacher accused me of taking drugs, even though i didn't even drunk alcohol in this time she thought that. I was pissed, that she said that to my mum and not me.
Thats me, finally a good description! Could say, thats a job.
I took Seroquel today and I've been drowsy all day. I feel like im in a dream. That stuff is for horses.
this question is for anyone watching with bipolar… how old were you when you were diagnosed? i’m 26 & i knew something was wrong since a kid like age 11, just didn’t know & now im sure it’s bipolar but never been diagnosed
Hey Lizzie this video is so AWESOME!!!!!This is helping me focus on what is my Bi-Polar VS my PTSD. I am a combat veteran and just was diagnosed with BiPolar 2 with PTSD and Traumatic brain injury. So I am trying to figure out how long I have lived with Bipolar.This is my first video of yours but I am about to binge watch your videos. Thank you for doing these videos. Hope your still making them......thank you Dwayne
all my friends thought i was on drugs or on an alcoholic. I remember i went down to see a friend while in college cause he hadnt been to college in a while, and i was shaking and everythin and had a temperature but i felt absalutely fine. He took me outside and sat me down and asked if i was trippin on acid.
Another time i was going to an old friends house and before we got to his door he turned to me and said " he by the way, if my mum asked if you where drunk, say no"
i was confused so i said i didnt drink (which i dont) and asked what he was talking about
his mum so me up at our local shop and according to her i was drunk, when i was sober
thats just how i am ig
thank you for sharing this with us. I can feel you so much, it is so difficult to put your emotions, thoughts into words after or when you experience all of this and hearing that from you helps me so much to just except that is real. I hope you can understand what I mean by that. I wish you all the best.
dude i agree with all of this i wanna cry! this is it! but idk if im bipolar? i feel all this everyday. but i can change from the happy to sad in seconds and minutes and hours or ill go into a long depression then come out of it back to happy sad real fucking fast.
I could really relate to it too. im sometimes asking the same question to my self if i’m bipolar or not.
I literally missed a flight sitting right there for over an hour! Had headphones in then dosed off. And this was my flight home from my last days in the Army!
this video seriously made me decide to go back on medication--i had no idea so many of these behaviors were actually the result of my disorder and not me just being a terrible person, lol. thank you so much!!!!
Shit I’ve not been diagnosed but THIS. IS. ME.
Simi literally same except I was diagnosed with ADHD and Borderline
Olivia Moore i was diagnosed with adhd and depression but my hyperactivity was actually mania😅
So glad I haven't taken vraylar. I’m not bipolar. My psychiatrist has prescribed me vraylar. I had mania (drug-induced mania) coming off clonazepam. Thank you.
I really related with most of these points, and sometimes I forget how much bipolar affects me. I'm tempted to open up about it on my channel too.
#93 is me too! I’m a rule follower, usually. But I literally have no impulse control and don’t mind the repercussions of said episode.
Before I was on Latuda I was on Seroquel. I had a lot of lucid dreams. I was on like 6-7 hundred mgs a day for arounda year. I have schizo affective disorder. I remember the Seroquel haze. I still use prescribed 50mgs cut into a half or even a quarter if I need it to sleep.
Thanks for another mental health video Lizzie. That's really cool what you said about being more compassionate. I think that's a positive trait from my disorder I never thought about
Was that a miraculous medal Lizzie? ❤
It's like watching a female version of myself. Scary. At least three of my closest friends have sat me down with "you are bipolar just like such and such-speech" but i always say "noooooo". But honestly, I can barely keep a job.
For a while I was told by family I wasn't well in the early stages when I was diagnosed with bipolar 1 but as time has passed over the years I feel better thanks to the antipsychotic & mood stabiliser meds I'm on
Nobody is normal we are yall weridos its like we are not perfect only GOD.
My X Boyfriend Says He Not Bipolar But When He Gets Mad It Sounds Like IT.
Ask for healing through the sacramental grace of Confession. Ask for God's order in your life! Seek the Will of God in the Sacred Heart of Jesus. Pray, "Sacred Heart of Jesus, I trust in You!"
Place your trust in God and not in your illness or other people.
Like she knows my life inside and out. Nice to hear someone who experiences and feels the exact same way I do. Best therapy yet
I feel like one of the worse things is when I’m manic people are drawn to me so I make so many more friends but then they realize its not really me and they don’t like the person I really am
You're a Blessing to many. Thank you for sharing
Thank you again for your strength and wisdom.
The first shall be last is here indeed!
omg i like totally recognize some of these signs and definitely had them prior to diagnosis!!!
During a manic episode, I subscribed to a ballet exam I wasn't actually ready for, and passed it with an incredibly high score , if I tried most of the things I've done that day like right now, I would barely be able to do them.. It sounds absurd but I literally had to beg my teacher to put me back to my old grade and all my classmates were like "wtf is wrong with that girl"
I search videos or sayings so that I can say the exact words I can describe how I am feeling. RELATABLE VIDEO. my friends annoys me, they are so invalidated when it's comes to me explaining shuts about how I FUCKING feel.
Medical weed helps me plus music calms me down I have bipolar 2 & PTSD
I use marijuana as well. It’s the only thing that has worked. The meds messed with me especially the seriqul (made me mean all the time and sleep 15 hours at a time). I whole heartily agree with medical marijuana for bipolar if other drugs don’t work!!! Holistic life all the way!!!
i just got diagnosed & there is so much in this that i relate to. all things i thought were just a part of me.
any advice on how to separate your bipolar from your personality?
Hi! I can completely relate to what you said, or se least to most of it. Even some things I wasn’t able to explain you were able to put it into words. Thanks :)
How do u deal with something someone says that hurts you? I have a tough time and one remark may ruin my whole day any ideas that help? I'm bipolar 1
I hated seroquil (IDK how to spell it). Made me feel more exhausted after sleep then I've ever felt.
Seroquel
The irony is I think you're able to produce these amazing vids (100 points ahahah) because you're manic when you film?!
Am sad i think i have bioploar to you say every i felt in my live i am 13
one of the worst things about bipolar is that it hits us super young
TheFubz is it because puburity right only god made us for a reason use our bipolar disorder.
I can really identify with working while the sun is setting and getting dark and not even aware of it!
Oh, yess how often i cut and dyed my hair...
How can you turn my feelings and symptoms into words so accurately?
Thank you so very much every item hit the nail on the head God bless you please continue your work Richard from Australia
One more comment (I think): Out of these 100, only 10 didn't really apply to me, at least not to my recollection. However, my memory is crap right now too, so some of them may have applied at some point in my life. Right note though, 90, NINETY signs are current with me, that's rather difficult to wrap my head around! Wow...
**right now though**
Serequel made my tongue flap uncontrolled. No way will I. Ever take any anti psychotic again. No way n. My diet helps me.
Yea im definitly bipolar. Ive been diagnosed with a bunch of shit when i was younger, but this shit right here.. story of my life. First one to last one, all of them. I might get myself checked out again soon. Its honestly painfull in a way seeing how much i relate.
