Recently dignosed with bipolar 2, possibly bipolar 3 as of a couple weeks ago as opinion from a new psychiatrist. Struggling with the mood swings lately every couple weeks that I cannot handle. This condition is just awful. In addition to my anxiety and panic, now I deal with depression too and menopause. Wow! I've got to find some strength somewhere to deal with this. Anyone out there who can give me some advice?

Almost every woman goes through menopause so we have a connection to hot women all over the planet. That idea helped me a little.
