Hi i’m just wondering if there’s any other bipolar people here struggling with addiction?
Me!! Bipolar 2…the depressed type. I was diagnosed in college. It explained alot. But my mental health has been much improved since getting sober!
Bi polar recovering alcoholic and drug addict here also
i am hoping that getting sober makes a difference. i just found out my mom has cancer and it’s pretty bad so i’ve been using as a coping mechanism.
glad to know i’m not alone
i’m bipolar 1
You definitely are not alone my friend
i need some support so this app is definitely really nice.
I don’t have bipolar but I’m a recovering addict, you’re not alone
I’m bipolar too. And alcohol addiction. Your not alone
thank you for that
when does it get easier
For me, it got easier when i stopped drinking, went to AA meetings, got a sponsor, worked the 12 steps, talked with my doctor and continued to take my medication needed for my mental health. I have to do these things to take care of me.
It does get better.
thank you <3
