      I hope you know that you will always have a place to come, as long as I can keep this going. It's sort of a "side project" if you will at the moment. I'm not looking to monetize the show or anything, just reach as many people as I can. That's why I don't ask for people to subscribe or like or anything. Honestly, the comments are where I live, because I get to connect with you guys on a personal level. I want this to grow organically. So, if you know other people who feel the way we do, or who are sitting in the dark and don't know there's a light on the other side of the door and all they have to do is walk through it. And when they do, I'll be here to welcome them.
      Take care my friend and remember you can contact me at any time.

    Ive been feeling pretty low. I had a fever in the beginning of January. It lasted 4.5 days and when i came out of it i went manic. Idk why. My doctor found that interesting. He thinks my brain burning up did something to my brain chemistry. I ended up getting back on Seroquel because i found myself in the ER 3 times with panic attacks. Seroquel had brought me out of it but so low i feel like im struggling to do anything.
    I train every single day. Weight training and or running. Its getting harder and harder to get up. When i feel the highs i get super high with Bipolar-1
    But it comes with the super low end on the other side.

      Trust me I feel that. I have BP-1 so I can totally relate. I don't take Seroquel but I have and it does help. That's interesting that your doctor thinks that though. I've never herad of anything like that. I know I start my TMS this week.
      I hate hearing that you're going through such a struggle. I know that working out helps (I need to get back into it) but you should talk to your dr about those panic attacks if you haven't already. I was having a long panic attack which I didn't know was a thing. But mine lasted for almost a year and SEVERAL medications before we finally found one that works.
      My best advice is become close with your Dr. and be honest about how you're feeling. It's their job to help you navigate these kinds of times.
      I truely hope things start looking up for you my friend and just know that if you ever need to talk or need help, my door is always open!

      When your Dr said he thought your brain burning up did something to your brain chemistry, what do you mean? Did you run a fever or something? I've just never heard of that before.

      @Bipolar_Thoughts I had a fever for 4.5 days from the Influenza virus. I laid in bed miserable for that entire time. Right after my fever cleared I found myself in the ER 3 times. All for manic panic symptoms. I even required the B52 shot the 3rd time. I wasn't on medications previously before the fever and I didn't take anything other than ibuprofen and Tylenol for the fever. I had a significant change after the fever. I asked if he thought it was the Tylenol and Motrin. But he thought it might have been my fever that triggered it. It was still weird. It's never happened before in my life. I also haven't had a fever since covid 2020. But that fever lasted a day. I haven't had a week long fever since I was a child. It was truly a horrible experience.

      @@TuckTuuuckYeah, I don't know about that. I've never heard of a fever causing mania. I mean It's possible I guess, almost anything could be a trigger, but I've just never heard or experienced that. The Tylenol could have even been what did it. It's sometimes hard to tell what causes it. Do you know your typical triggers?
