Bipolar disorder? Manic-depressive disorder?

Does any one suffer from this disease whether directly or indirectly? That is whether you have it or a friend or loved one has it?

How do you cope..
Answer:
My fiance has Bi-polar. You just have to relize sometimes that she/he doesn't mean what they says. She's told me time and time again "It's not you- it's me". Those are really good words to keep in mind. I'm teaching myself not to take things so personally. You have to think to yourself " are they really angry at me- is it justifiable??" and base your actions on that. I love her with all my heart and she is one of the most caring people I have ever met. But she does have an illness that she works very hard to control. Just be supportive and understanding that it isn't your fault!! :) When they have outbreaks of emotion- they need you the most. And for the love of God- when they tell you to stop pressing issues- stop!! hahahaha All bi-polars have triggers- learn them and avoid them! ;) Best wishes...
i have it and have several in my family that do as well. educate yourself so you can properly and supportively react and help your loved one. if you have it, be open with your loved ones about it and educate yourself and then them. finally, see someone about it, do not take second hand advice as they are not experts and every case is different.
use music...music can cure...choose classical or soft sentimental music, avoid sad lyrics.this can help too..
Never say any negative words to the patients...this is very important.
I do not know about the illness name...but the above mentioned is good for depression patients...if you talk about mental brain problems...this is more serious and very complicated... still need to see brain doctors!
My daughter has bi-polar, BPD, Panic Disorder, and more. You take it one day at a time. Enjoy the good days and when you have a rough day it will end. Stay strong, take care of yourself and relax. Best of luck.

I have a very good friend with this disorder. You need to have a session with the therapist yourself occasionally and you should be reporting what the loved one is like currently.

It is also important for people they live with to help them journal thier moods so that the doctor knows if the meds are working well or should be adjusted.

If they are properley medicated the other real important link is that they are in therapy that helps them especially with the depressed phase.
It must be very very dificil to have this type of disorder, the truth not desire to anybody or to my worse enemy. Aunque si te digo que hoy en dia las personas sufren de tantos disturbios los puedes notar por las reacciones agresivas que tienen en un trafico, o simplemente una respuesta a una pregunta simple. La verdad que en este mundo el stress, la presion, el desespero, te hace tener desorden sin que te des cuenta. kisses
