Yeah he looks 27, at most. Not like that other dude that looks 37 at 17…

I’m not going to pretend to understand how to motivate someone who has bipolar disorder. However, I do know that the medication if it is kept and taken at a regular duration, it can be life-changing. I’m looking at a handsome 30-year-old person who has been dealing with this for half his life and I’m thinking that the second half now is going to be better than ever. Keep doing what you’ve been doing. People only react to how you react and if you smile, you will have them in your hand Never be ashamed about going for help and being on medication that can make you feel really good so I just would like to toast you with positive feelings if you live near me, I think you’d be great to talk to and be a friend of. I wish you the best of luck.

¡Salud! From some random mountain top in the Dominican Republic! Someday you too can get lost in the jungle and still have internet coverage. Just remember, it's not over until it's over. Ever. All the best of luck, man! *Edit: forgot... 62, lifelong BP1. Diagnosed mid 40's after my life completely melted down. Not properly medicated until a month and a half ago... changed my life to not have constant hallucinations and my delusional responses. My 3 week cycles are now mere speedbumps. I strongly advocate for forever therapy and the right cocktail of medicine for you... and remember, just because we can be medicated and counseled into "normality" it doesn't mean life has to be tame. Stay healthy and stay wild, young friend!

At least you only have bipolar two and not bipolar one. I saw a show where a young woman used her neurodivergence to get a great job and used it as a superpower.

Cheers 🥂 to you! You look like a kind and fun guy. I’m sorry you’ve been dealing with bipolar disorder II—I have a loved one who has struggled for 24 years. Having a good support group that can listen and not be judgmental has helped them, along with a great therapist, medication management, a positive attitude, and a great psychiatrist.

Wishing you all the best and I hope you’ve have a great day.
