  1. I think this needs to be said..

    At the time of recording this video I was trying out 3 different Bipolar medications – Latuda, Rexulti & Abilify. The diagnosis was brand new for me & I wanted to make a video to help myself not feel so alone, and maybe provide some value to others who were going through the same thing.

    ADHD, Bipolar, Autism – all of these symptoms overlap each other. There is no one specific case for everyone & everyone’s experience with these disorders are different.

    Please do not watch this video & say “oh I guess I’m bipolar now” – that was not my intention. My intention was to express what I was feeling when I got the diagnosis & to see if other people may have been experiencing the same thing.

    Yes, these could be symptoms, but it all depends on you and your life. I was at a place where these things were heavily affecting my everyday life to the point where I was not able to function. If that is not you, then you’re good! 😊

  2. Yall are so fucked in the comments this man is being open on the internet about his personal experience with bipolar disorder on a platform to relate to people and everyone says "this is life mate" well i have bipolar 1 and I'm right with you sir. Keep doing you ❤.

  3. You’re lucky they were happy for you. My mom would be pissed as hell and tell me Ive ruined my life. Which is why im in my 30s now and have no kids and my mom is upset now that I don’t kids haha

  4. Be careful with spreading these information in the internet…

    I’m diagnosed (from a psychiatrist), these are not just traits of the bipolar disorder, it actually can take a while to be diagnosed, not every mental illness is seen directly…

    Take care!

  5. FACTS. I was diagnosed last year and started Latuda a few months back but I don’t think it’s really working for me. I feel like I still learn something new about myself/this disorder every day. Thanks for sharing!❤

  6. Nah cause I was just diagnosed this I’m really bi polar and was so sad and at the same time relieved to find out the amount of pain I feel everyday is unbearable all I wanted to love and support

  7. I empathize with you. I have recently been diagnosed as of last Friday. The worst part for me is the extreme mood changes. When I'm good I am so good, when I'm down it stays like that for weeks.

  8. Having Bipolar 1 myself, these are very vague. Like when I'm manic I won't sleep for days and spend thousands of dollars (cause I am convinced I'll become a millionaire from writing a book)

    But instead of writing the book I just drink to excess and party. Like my last manic episode I dropped out of school cause I was convinced I was going to be rich and famous
