Good for you for seeking help.
It was nice of your GP to pray with you. It sounds like it was just the right kind of immediate 'medicine' for you, KW13.
I suffer from depression and am on meds for it. It took me years to realize that my symptoms were typical of clinical depression. Now I take my meds and feel much better. I realize depression isn't the same as bipolar disorder, but it still can be a real handicap in living life well.
I hope that you are able to find the right medication and the correct dosage to help you have a fantastic rest of your life!
Best wishes,

you have a little baby coming soon, don't you? More stress but more pleasure. I'm sorry about the bi-polar disorder - don't have it myself but have friends, former significant other, with the disorder, so I can sympathize, and say "stay on the meds!" even when it is boring. You are even younger than I am, glad you are getting the right treatment earlier in life. It will make a difference for your whole life. Your friend Hortensia

I am so proud of you little brother. I am so glad you trusted me enough to confide in me. To know that going public with it (which was hard as I did fear people would not take anything I had to say after that announcement seriously) has actually helped you thrills me beyond belief. We're both going to learn lots of stuff and how to manage it - and its so great that you have acknowledged it young and have so many years of hopefully being able to manage your condition. Lets pray for both of us that we get some tranquility soon and experience that balanced feeling that other people have instead of wildly swinging moods all the time.
I think the moment you described with your GP praying with you was incredibly moving. What a wonderful person she is.
Now make sure you come back and share your treatment experiences. You'll know there are lots of different treatments from the posts on my thread.
And finally WELCOME TO THE MENTALIST CLUB, we're delighted to have you!

Thank you for sharing where you are in life right now, I am so warmed and encouraged by all the postings here that are so completley open and honest.
It is great that you have found someone to work with, who is genuinely caring and supportive of you. Mental health issues are tough to deal with, but with support they can be overcome.
It is lovely your doctor prayed with you, as it brings you comfort.
Stay well
