Pushed the button too quick. Lol. I am a depressed bipolar looking for support. My life is out of control health wise and mentally. Need more than pills. Anybody there ?

Hi Kaerze, I'm here for you :)

I agree in that pills aren't the total answer. There has got to be other methods used

to treat mental illness. I'm not familiar enough with depressed bipolar but this amazing

forum has men and women alike you struggle with many different issues. People will

reach out to you and share their own experiences with you.

I was Agoraphobic for 5 years and suffered from severe anxiety. I'm happy to welcome you Kaerze. :) xx

Welcome! There are so many steps you can take to feel more in control, in addition to taking the meds! You mentioned a healthy lifestyle! Perfect thought! Do you belong to a gym? Going there to work out on the treadmill or in a class will give social opportunity but also make you feel great for taking affirmative action! You'll begin to feel better and more in control by taking control of your exercise! Not sure how you eat, but eating healthy is so important for your overall well being. You'd be surprised at how much better you'll feel once you eat a nutrient packed salad! Third thought is to be sure to get the correct amount of sleep-like Goldilocks, not too much and not too little-but just the right amount. Hope these suggestions help!
