"bipolar disorder" (limited)

MDJunction to me

"MDJ is so cool! I was able to work on all my problem areas separately but simultaneously. Eventually, with advice, support, direction and encouragement from a diverse bunch of genuine people, I began to heal and was able to put myself together as one unified whole. This site is one awesome tool!" (sharone)

Hi, I am new!

Ginky

The first thought that comes to mind is that "I'm all over the page!" ha-ha

I am joining every bipolar, anxiety, depression group available!!!

I was drawn to the people in this group just reading your post and finding myself wanting to interact.

I have a very strong family history of bipolar and migraines. I have been diagnosed with migraines at the age of 9 years. I have recently started Zoloft for OCD, anxiety, bipolar, etc.

In addition, I am taking Topamax for the migraines.

I am really trying to educate and accept my disorder if that makes sense.

It has been a long road, but I feel that I have finally found my place.
