Welcome!

This is a safe place to discuss, vent, and share information about bipolar disorder. It is also a place for peer support and comfort.

Please use empathy and common sense when posting and commenting. We are all in this together, let’s stay kind and civil.

The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

Please be sensitive when discussing suicide and self-harm. Posts threatening suicide are subject to immediate removal.
Posts containing medical advice or diagnosing others are not allowed. If you are posting about traditional or alternative treatment methods, please keep the post focused on your personal experience.

Hello, fellow bipolar bears,

Let’s check in with each other. Memes are fun, but having a community where people care is even better!

How are you feeling? What’s happening in your life? What are some of your current wins and obstacles? What are you most looking forward to? What are you glad to be leaving behind?

How can this community support you?

Please share about anything you like, not just bipolar-related stuff. We are humans first and foremost.

Shit, that's tough. I hope her mom is able to continue her sobriety and regain parenting rights. You are an amazing person for taking her in and giving her shelter in this storm. Going into the system is so damaging, it's much better to stay with stable family. May things work out the best they can. I'll be keeping you and your family in my thoughts.
