Hi, I'm trying to use the Saya app for the first time. Can you recommend any well rated, reviewed psychologists specializing in bipolar disorder type 1? I live outside the Philippines and I speak English, Filipino and Cebuano.
I'm in UAE. I have tried elfbar bc8000 disposable strawberry ice and now ice king strawberry watermelon 30k. Which ones do you smoke and which flavors and varieties to try?
Hi so I'm currently changing meds. My old meds (Risperidone 4mg and Seroquel 25mg) got changed to Aripiprazole. The plan is to taper Risperidone and slowly increase dosage of Aripiprazole (Compify) over a month. However I am experiencing symptoms of mania like engaging in risky behavior especially meeting new people for sex, reckless spending habits, can't sleep well, being restless, wanting to go out a lot or talk to different people. It's also worth noting I just lost my job and my last working day is end of this week. I feel I'm doing all these things to try and distract myself otherwise I would fall into depression and my insecurities. I feel I might regret some of my choices later once my mood changes.
I'm currently on Aripiprazole 10mg which will go up to 15mg by end of this month.
What other hobbies can I do to stop engaging in reckless behavior? I truly need a friend, but all of my conversations with "friends" just turn out sexual quickly. It's like without bipolar or the things I do when I'm manic I have no other personality. I would truly appreciate if someone reaches out who can understand what I'm going through.
And that it's actually pretty common occurence. It could be due to hypersexuality commonly found in bipolar women (i dont have the complete facts on this, do correct if I'm wrong).
I have had wet dreams about other women, but its especially strong when I'm experiencing an uptick in my energy levels. I feel restless and always want to meet new people, both men and women.
Edit: I'm already medicated but I still feel this way. I have been going through a few hookups recently.
Totally sexual. My sex drive is going insane and is risky sexual behavior considered mania?
I just lost my job and I feel insanely lacking in communication and social skills that I feel contributed to that. I also don't have friends. I am painfully introverted and would consider myself INTP if you believe in personality types. Would therapy help my case?
Has anyone with bipolar 1 tried therapy and helped them? This lost of job has also quite triggered small bouts of depression and self pity.
Hi I'm 28F and I see there are several revert posts on here. I would like to chat with fellow female reverts from all over the world. We could discuss about anything and support each other. Would anyone be interested if I make a discord channel for all of us?
Edit: Or if you know of one already please feel free to share.
Hi, I know there's a sentiment that it's almost impossible to make friends here in this country but I still would like to try.
I live in Sharjah around Majaz 1 Corniche and I would like to meet female friends. We can hang out, go for a walk, sit and talk, and have lunch/ dinner together.
I am also a revert, from a Southeast Asian background, so meeting Muslim friends would be preferred.
DM me if interested
