    I’m 23 and I’m the same way. People love me, but still I’m stuck at home on a Saturday night on the internet. It’s not easy to fix I know. I’m not on any meds although occasionally I visit a councelor. Here’s the best thing to do. You have to eat properly. 3 meals a day, carbs and protein for breakfast, carbs protein and vegtables for lunch and dinner. This will give you a foundation to start mving on with your life. Also, by some drinks or products with Acai berries in them. They really do stabilize your moods.
    Then if your depression is still bad, do what you’re doing and find the proper meds. Research yourself and suggest meds with and to your doctor. After you do both of these things, your mind will be better stabilized. (Also you need 8 hours of sleep daily, not more or less)
    After that, begin improving your relationships with people. REalize that you were born with something that most people don’t have to deal with, and don’t beat yourself up about it. Like if you were in a wheelchair, overtime you’d get over the desire to play sports or anything. You just have to realize that you have special needs and that’s okay.
    Also, it really helps when you know other people that are bipolar. Even if it’s just reading the Psychology section in Y!Answers. You need to relate to people so you won’t feel like an outcast.
    Anyway, once you take care of these thins, life will be more managable and then you can fit right in with everyone else. You won’t even have to “catchup”. It will all click at once at it will be like you never missed a beat.
    Also, having a boyfriend or friends who understand and are willing to work with you heps too. (Don’t worry about not feeling chipper, it’s not your fault) Anyway…..good luck and remember there are people who truely understand your situation.
    ****Oh and if you ever need an email buddy you can write me. I know that’s wierd but Iknow there were plenty of depressed times in my life I wish I had someone who understood.

    There is no such thing as bipolar disorder without some type of mania… you need to be properly diagnosed. The Medication for bipolar will make you worse, and possibly cause unwanted medical problems. You sound depressed. Get someone to properly diagnose you, you can find mental health professionals with sliding scales if you call 211 wherever you are. Your improper diagnosis will if anything only cause problems…

    Well first of all you need a proper diagnosis.. At best a SECOND OPINION, because bipolar disorder has both highs and lows (bi = 2) So obviously if you’re on meds for bipolar people you are on the wrong meds.. It sounds like you are just depressed and feel sorry for yourself. What you need is a quick slap in the face (not to be rude) but you need to wake up and quit complaining about what u dont have, realize what u do have, there are things!! i promise!! (one of them being that you’re alive, start with that) Stop making excuses and acting like life is only unfair to you (because it’s unfair to everyone, we all just deal in different ways) and talk to someone!! Depression can be cured, you have hope. You are 25 years old you have a ton of life to experience still, so take little steps, stop worrying about the big picture so much and start with SOMETHING, weather it be as big as counceling, or as small as getting a haircut.. regardless u should consider yourself lucky, you know where your problems lie, so pick one and fix it, then fix the next one, and so on and so on.. there are ways to boost your confidence, ways to get your friends back, ways to work (even if its not in your field just yet) there are answers out there for you, but it is up to YOU to go after them. The more time u spend dwelling on how many problems you have, the less time your spending on fixing them.. just get to it, start small.. ur young! u have plenty of time to get back on track hun.. but u have to keep in mind that it’s on YOU to do that!! U will be fine.. Give yourself a break :)
