I was diagnosed with bipolar type I earlier this year. I’m on Cymbalata and Geodon now. I had my first manic episode and now I’m in extreme low. During the episode I lost my job and got divorced and moved. It’s hard decipher my emotions from what’s bipolar and all the change that has occurred. It also scares to go back out in the world. Like I can’t trust myself or be independent. I imagine this isn’t the case but so much change has i feel like paralyzed me. I just began counseling again and found this sub Reddit, which has awakened me to the severity of the bipolar. Any hope or advice would be greatly appreciated.
