ORIGINAL: DaddysInkedSlut Rule, As a woman who was diagnosed as bipolar when I was 15 yrs old. I have learned the hard way that there is no “easy fix” and no one, not even me can simply make my disorder go away. I was with a wonderful man, a wonderful dominant, a wonderful father for my children who thought as my dom he should be able to “fix me”. In truth that philosophy nearly killed me. He convinced me to go off my meds and one day I was rushed to the hospital taking an overdose of pills. Although it wasn’t my 1st attempt to reach out for help, it was the loudest. It was then and only then that he realized he couldn’t do anything but be supportive to me, to help me find a good therapist and psychiatrist to help treat me. However, in truth by that point the damage had been done to our relationship. He felt helpless and like he had failed me, failed us. He couldn’t get past that. Of the severely depressed, the bipolars may be the worst off, indeed. They are not in a stable condition, but always live with the contrast. However, I do not consider being bipolar a disorder. Depending on the person, it may be a natural condition. It often sucks, yes, but polar bears and grizzlies may say the same thing about hibernation. quote:
ORIGINAL: DaddysInkedSlut Rule, That yr. I was in and out of the hospital 8 times. It was by far the worst yr of my life. It was the worst year for my children. Now I am on a medication that I take religiously, I see a therapist bi-weekly , I am involved with several wonderful support groups, and I have wonderful people in my life, friends and play partners who don’t try to “fix me” but accept me, for all my flaws for all my quirks, for all my health complications. If it works for you, good for you. quote:
ORIGINAL: DaddysInkedSlut To say to someone, stop taking meds, find a dom and you will be fine is not only ignorant but dangerous. I have not recommended to stop taking medication. I have said and I quote: quote:
But taking medication is your own responsibility. Neither have I said: "find a dom and you will be fine". Go ahead and look it up. I have not said that. quote:
ORIGINAL: DaddysInkedSlut I admit I almost simply hide Rule but instead I thought I should respond. Tsk. I mean you all well, silly.
