Hi. I'm Brieanna, I'm 18, currently living in Boston, MA. I'm originally from Pennsylvania but I'm here for college. I was very recently diagnosed with bipolar disorder and just kind of don't know where else to go for support. You can add me if you'd like :) I don't have a lot of entries but I've been trying to update more often.

welcome to the group.

Congratulations for taking this step - looking for support.

Live Action support is also around through the national bipolar disorder site - you can find support groups.

might help with understanding and all that.

best of luck.

hi brieanna. i like your name.
usually i don't add teenagers (i'm 27) but i'm going to make an acception. you're actually an adult now anyways, or is that 21? i'm not sure. maybe it's different in the US than it is in canada. but anyways, when i ever rant about annoying teenagers, please don't take offence.
i added you, so if you want to add me back, that would be cool.
and i would suggest getting books from the library about bipolar disorder. i have one called "the bipolar workbook". i think it's a good one. it has charts and stuff. and when you see your docor, you should ask for a mood tracker.

i hope you get what you need/are looking for in this community.

and i look forward to getting to know you and hopefully i can help you out in any way i can :]

Hi, Brieanna, I'd like to add you, I work as a peer advocate at a psychiatric center and I am diagnosed with bipolar disorder. Mostly I complain in my journal. So if you can't stand the complaining, I'll understanding. But I also tell good stories.

That's totally fine with me :) I'll add you.
