My name is Suzan, I am 54 and suffer from bipolar type 2 disorder.
I would like to speak with either the person afflicted, or family members.

a bit of history...while I do not think I have ever been 100 percent stable, I functioned fairly normally for years. I wondered if I was hypoglycemic-because of the highs and lows.

I was finally diagnosed correctly.....after my father in law suicided in '97. then in '98 my husband suicided while I was at home with him...and there lies my descent in to this 
terrible, nightmarish existence. I have been on and off disability-currently on. and from advice from my Dr. applied for social security-no reply yet. various medications-some work for a bit -then don't-currently on prozac, depakote, wellbutrin and seroquel. nice combo, huh??

I am hoping that by doing this I can help someone else understand..and give them some hope that it may take a while but there is help out there. I guess we need to stick together -because believe me it can be lonesome and hard.
