i'm a high functioning bipolar. diagnosed at 26 after working fulltime going to school three nights a week to finish a bachelor's degree while raising a 3yr old and getting divorced. i often wonder if i had been better taken care of during that time, if the bipolar would have "surfaced". hmm. since then several high profile professional positions, bought a house solo and raised a boy through college. 3 hosps in 20 yrs. now? at 45 finding things more difficult perhaps beause of long term effects of meds? went on ssdi and now work part time. trying to keep the house and my sanity with low paying but low stress job and boy grown and gone. sometimes i wonder if its all worth it? but not plagued with any other bad habits ie dont drink or smoke, worst thing i do is drink coca cola...will i ever meet someone is my cry. i live in remote area with lots of seniors. best to all . j
