Hi Brenda and welcome to this community. You will find much support here regarding bipolar and anxiety with varying advice of what helps with these battles. I’ve never experienced bipolar but imagine the ups and downs of it would definitely increase all forms of anxiety. Anxiety has been a long struggle for me for many years, and yes, it ruined my life too in so many ways. Things can improve, anxiety can become manageable through therapy, mindfulness, medication and most of all education! Your tool kit needs to be full of tips and tricks. I like the teachings of Dr. Claire Weekes, (books and uTube videos) as it helped make it easier for me to break it all down and learn to control the fear (the root of all anxiety.) Share what you can, when you can. Take what resonates with you here and leave the rest. This is a very diverse group of sufferers. We’re here to support you!
