MDJunction to me

jenniferdiva"MDJunction has been just an amazing support for me. The people who are on mdj are so nice! Unlike the many other support sites that I have been on. I have made several friends on mdj who are so supportive and so educated about mental illness. Of course non of us are doctors, but we certainly offer each other hugs, opinions, and advice. I have learned a great deal from my friends on mdjunction. I am also encouraging other people who suffer from mental illness to come on to MDJ. It can be a life line." (jenniferdiva)

A little about me: The onset of my disease was in 2005. I went through a wild manic phase wherein I didn't sleep for two weeks and drank like a fish without feeling the effects of it. I was a god. A few weeks after that, I was filled with remorse and became majorly depressed and attempted suicide. If I had only known which way to cut, I would have been successful. From that I now have four scars from trying and trying.

When I was first diagnosed I was deemed Major Depression. After they found out about my manic phase, I was deemed Bipolar II. The more information they found the deeper the rabbit hole got and I was diagnosed Bipolar I. Now, my current diagnosis is Bipolar I with Psychotic Features.

I was married for almost 13 years. We were together for 15 years. However, all the suicide attempts and manic phases became too much for her and she left me.

I have two sons whom I dearly love, whom I am allowed to visit with supervision.

I have had to undergo a bilateral hip replacement in the middle of my ongoing divorce on top of all this mess and am now in the care of my family.

I am now awaiting a decision for my disability claim to go through, but that is still months away from happening. I can only work up to $1000 a month, limiting greatly what I can send to my kids.

I hate this disease almost as much as it hates me.
