My friend might be either clinically depressed / bipolar 2. I’ve been through depression, but I don’t think to the same extent that she’s going through it. She opened up to me which is good and i asked about her self harming (it ruined our friendship for 6 or 7 months last year) and she told me she did it a month ago. I’m so worried about her and I don’t know what to do to help her. So any of you who’ve been clinically depressed or have bipolar or bipolar 2 disorders… any input?
i have bipolar 1 disorder. she should find a therapist so she can get on medicine. medicine helps alot. i got diagnosed in august, and if you want, you can email me at kaleymanzene@aol.com
thanks so much. how long did it take for you to be diagnosed?
right now im just checking up periodically to make sure shes okay and were planning fun stuff together and exercise and stuff and im getting updates on the situation. is that good? anything else i can do?
thanks so much for your help.
Staystrong
