Being Diagnosed With Bipolar Disorder & My First Psychotic Episode How I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder type 1, and what happened during my first psychotic episode. Follow me on Twitter! @hatttiegladwell
I don’t usually comment on RU-vid videos but I really want to thank you for posting this (and for creating your channel). my best friend just told me she was diagnosed with bipolar disorder months after calling me during what I now know was a manic episode, and I feel like I can be a better friend and support system for her after listening to you Thank you again!
I honestly think you should continue doing this because it’s super helpful for people who suffer to know they’re not the only ones out there and even for people to realise they actually have some kind of mental health🖤
How are you at work? I’m unsure what your describing is true psychosis? I’ve been there, but mine involved hallucinations and delusions. Bipolar one too, take meds, but can’t seem to keep a job. Maybe your next video can focus on work? Great video. I guess everyone’s mania is different.
Thank you so much for this video. I am currently trying to support a relative with bipolar, however they are refusing to take medication 😩 they say they don't want to stop feeling high and hit the low or gain weight. So glad your bipolar is at least stable now.... Good luck with your other diagnosis xx
