Brief Mental Health Update

By (user no longer on site) OP over a year ago

Had a GP phone appointment and detailed my manic episode with my more recent hypomanias with resultant 'crashes' (all this has been deduced from my own research). The GP is referring me to Mental Health services to be assesed which is what I wanted.

After last week when I had a crisis and slipped low I now feel my mood is in it's stable phase. Last time it elevated after about 3 months.

How is everyone else doing today?

Good on you

Well done on getting a handle on this - so many conversely suffer in silence.

I agree! Such an achievement, when you are able to reach out and ask for the help you need, when feeling low. I hope everything goes well for you OP

Been fighting my own demons for sometime, sadly the one person who provided some sort of normality in my life is no longer talking to me.

Just going to get on with it I suppose.
