"I am bipolar and on the road to healthy happy living. " (LostSpirit)

MDJunction to me

"MDJunction to me is somewhere i feel safe i feel i can be myself and not be judged. I love the fact that i get to see that im not alone in what i am going through and i also get the chance to help others on their journey through guidance and communication.
I would truly be lost without MDJunction... to me its my savior, my personal place to go where i don’t feel so alone anymore in the world.

Hi,

I am reaching out. My partner is bipolar. Is it common for them to make impulsive decisions like giving away personal items without telling you?

Hi,

Welcome to our site.

Yes, I am bipolar, and in a manic state I can be impulsive. I haven't given away personal items. I have ran around helping people. I have inconsiderate. I become oblivious, when, I am manic.

Godbless, Gypsy

God Bless,Gypsy

Hi Junior, welcome to the sight. When my wife is on the high side she will give anyone that needs something what ever she has that she thinks will help. Consult me... before she was stable never, now she is stable she talks to me about most all decisions of consequense. I think she knows where she has been and second guesses her decision alot now.

Impulsiveness is one of the symptoms of bipolar - it can manifest in all kinds of different ways depending on the uniqueness of the person.
