I would like to hear only from anyone that has been diagnosed with Bipolar disorder and anyone who has been living with it. I am sure I will be diagnosed with it when I go to my appt on monday. I have had most of the symptoms for a few years. I was diagnosed with PTSD I have had panic attacks for at least eight years. I am not suicidal but I will say most days I think I am dying. My nerves manifest thru my stomach in particular,digestive problems. Sometimes I am so tense my neck hurts so bad it feels as if it’s on stilts if that makes sense.also I clench my jaw alot.I have recently started getting tension headaches. I know meds are what I will be given as well as talk therapy. How soon after you started meds did you feel any relief? I have not been able to keep a job as I get so overwhelmed I just can’t cope. Fear of dying is alot to do with being misdiagnosed for 8 months and then diagnosed with hyperthyroidism, I tookthe radiation pill last sept and am now hypo. I lost both of my best friends within 6 months of each other one to cancer one to a heart attack. I lost both my dogs to old age also during this time. I just want to know there is a silver lining at the end of this and that I am not going crazy! Thanks for your advice and time. I am 43
