I'm 22 years old, confused of what I should do with my life, I haven't found what I feel passionate about. I feel discouraged all the time which I know is a very bad thing, life for me is so hard, living with Bipolar is so tiring.

Welcome Jenny, we are happy you've found us, what is it that you would like to do with your life? Bipolar doesn't have to stop you, you can do anything you would like.

I've worked in many a job, never had any problems with getting and keeping them, I've only been fired once in my life, and that didn't have anything to do with bipolar.

Your young still and hopefully getting treatment for bipolar, so you have a head start on most of us, I didn't get treatment till very late in life. I'll turn 50 this year. yikes, I am getting old enough to qualify for the senior discount. LaughingLaughingLaughing

Jenny dear, read, post and ask questions, we are here to help.

HI Jenny! Glad you are here. Carmen is right, you have a lot of great years and milestones to celebrate! Hopefully you are getting treatment, that makes things a lot more tolerable. Anything you are remotely passionate about? Sometimes little things can lead to something big! Look forward to learning more about you.

Nature's first green is gold
Her hardest hue to hold.
Her early leaf's a flower;
But only so an hour.
The leaf subsides to leaf.
So Eden sank to grief,
So dawn goes down to day.
Nothing gold can stay.
