it used to be saturday. I liked it growing up, as I was at school monday to friday, so saturday was a free day before I had to prpare for school again sunday now my favorite day is monday. I know monday's are depressing, but my friend introduced me to be good to yourself monday, something to make mondays a little less depressing. so I do that and it does work. I have always had a soft spot for fridays, too. always a nice feeling on fridays- what with it being start of the weekend what things have you done this week to be good to yourself |

Q: If the very first time you sought mental health help was for depression, did you mention that first time any past hypomanic/manic behavior? Did that doctor even ask you about any other type of behavior beyond depression and/or anxiety? |

The doctors always ask me about manic behavior, but I don't have any. My diagnosis is Major Depressive Disorder. The docs I've seen like to ask about it because they know bipolar is often first misdiagnosed as depression.

Not sure if this happens to you, but do people around you blame your bipolar when you feel alittle sad or have some more energy or wanna do something outside your comfort zone? My brother does this sometimes and it annoys me alot.

No,my family and friends helped me a lot.they did not blame me.and i understand them it is difficult to know how to behave sometimes with your loved ones because first my dad was diagnosed with bipolar disorder.then i was.are you afraid of your child having bipolar disorder too in the future?i do not have a child.

Well I do not have any children currently but I do worry that if I do have children that they are more likely to have depression, a anxiety disorder or bipolar. Especially since bipolar is 60 to 80 percent hereditary. I worry more about my brother getting it since he is at the age where I was first diagnosed,
Do you have any relatives with bipolar or depression? . __________________ Bipolar 1 and Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD) Meds: Lithium 1800mg, Vraylar 1.5 mg, Trazodone, 25mg, Ativan 0.5-1 mg PRN |

- My paternal grandmother (bipolar disorder type 1) - My father (depression and likely bipolar disorder - official dx soon TBD) - My sister (official bipolar type 2 dx) - Me (official bipolar type 1 dx) - My youngest nephew (official bipolar NOS dx - we lost him to suicide) - Both of my paternal uncles (depression, at least, my older uncle maybe bipolar disorder. My eldest uncle passed away recently.) - My eldest paternal uncle's daughter/my cousin (official bipolar disorder dx, likely type 1) - My maternal grandmother had some kind of psychiatric breakdown after having my maternal uncle. It is unsure if/how that was diagnosed, but she became unable to function for a while. - A second cousin once removed on my maternal side (official bipolar type 1 diagnosis). It's hard to know if she inherited it from my blood relative side. She was only related to my maternal grandfather, not my maternal grandmother. - Story has it that my great great grandmother on my paternal grandmother's side had some serious mental illness.

I don't think it's related to being bipolar, no. most (if not all) vegitarians I've met choose that because they have something against harming animals overall, have you had a positive 2019? |

I think I have had a positive 2019. The latter part of the year has been alittle nerve wracking with applying to a new grad school.
