Recently, I've been quite 'manic,' anyways, I ended up getting diagnosed with bipolar during what I thought was a re-evaluation for my ADHD. As of right now, i am not allowed to drive, and its been pretty tough on me. My parents are forcing me to take meds or "we're going to send you to the ward, and they will strap you to a bed and force you to take them with an IV." I would say I am pretty intelligent though and found a way trick my parents into thinking I'm taking the meds. Anyways, that's not important. My sister has also been telling people shit about me apparently, and she has been avoiding me for two weeks now. My buddies get annoyed with my behavior, and my best friend that does know just wants to ignore the fact that I'm going through this right now. I am also only seventeen, so I'm reluctant to take a doctors opinion that I'm bipolar, like I'm still in high school man. I hate this. I was depressed for almost a year, and now that I'm finally happy they are trying to take it away. I can't focus in school; my parents won't leave me alone; my sister ignores me and spreads bullshit. I am so pissed off right now, and yet, I'm still hella pumped.
