I’ve been diagnosed with bipolar for about 4 years now, and let me just say: yes. The other day l cried over somebody killing a fly and it not dying all the way and suffering for an hour before l found it and had to put it out of its misery. l had such a hard time with this that l actually had to go home. Then l proceeded to eat an entire family sized bag of Lays potato chips. As well as this, l met a girl this summer and we immediately clicked and spent almost every single day together... until l “realized” l was superior to her in every possible way. l barely talk to her now. Also, lately I’ve been staying up until 4am and waking up at 6am. Thank you for educating people on this mental disorder!

I agree, that’s what I was thinking also. I have bipolar and the “suddenly cutting people off, feeling so much for them one day and nothing the next “ is far from true for me ... that sounds more like borderline personality disorder to me. Narcissistic people also have a tendency to do this. I do really relate to number 1. Memory problems , it took me a while to put the pieces together that it was bipolar effecting it so badly. Sometimes memory recollection physically makes my head hurt and makes me feel dizzy to the point I start getting vertigo because of memory issues. The worst... knowing someone for years and forgetting their name whilst in conversation....an awful feeling!

I’ve never been diagnosed with being bipolar, I have been diagnosed with depression & anxiety.. but I do forget a lot of stuff, when I was young, my mom would tell me to do something & I’d be like “okay!” & the moment I’d turn out to go to my room right quick I’d IMMEDIATELY forget. & I’d feel SOOO BAD when she asked me if I did it. Because it’s not like I didn’t wanna do it, I’d just GENUINELY FORGET. & it’s happen ALOT. Like it’s so annoying. It still happens as an adult. A LOT. I can’t tell myself I’m going to do something because while I’m going to do it, I’ll do something else & I’ll tell myself NOT to forget about the first thing I was gonna do, but I STILL forget to do it .. & about the food, same. I have to force myself to eat & it isn’t cause I feel like I need to lose weight, i just don’t wanna really eat. I’m not hungry. I have days where I need to eat every couple of hours & some days I can go from 5 AM that I wake up till like 2 PM Or 3 PM cleaning my house, doing laundry, picking up & not thinking of eating. Sometimes I get lightheaded so I know I HAVE to eat something. & about the friendships, I don’t have friends. Like, I never see the 3 friends I have . I can go a full year without seeing any of them or maybe seeing one friend every couple of months. I get invited to my friends kids birthday parties, & they tell me to go so my 5 year old can go & have fun but I usually don’t go to any. & with my family, I can go months without going to see my parents. I feel so guilty about it

I got that diagnosis years ago. However, I feel it’s pretty fucking amazing. Truthfully I never get the depression but that’s because I analyzed triggers then removed them. Then maximized my other time to be as efficient as possible. The having to take sleep meds sucks. The feeling like your being shot out of a cannon with hyper focus is pretty sweet. My theory was always to exploit my strengths and remove any weaknesses. My mind moves 1000 miles an hour but not abnormal for an INTJ though. Now the more adventure side is probably not the same. I asked my 6 year old if he wanted to go snowboarding last weekend. He said so I planned on going somewhere local. Friday came and I knew with the weather the snow was going to be crap. So I decided at 11am I would drive him 7 hours north to Vermont to hit the slopes. 5 hours of sleep the night before was up at 6am to get ready for fathers breakfast thing at his school. Then 5pm picked him up from his mom. Drove straight thru to Vermont stopping twice. Got there around 1am. Up at 8am on the slopes until 3:30pm then drove straight back home. Got up today around 9am and still made it for family pictures at 10am. So use the manic side because it’s very productive in getting things accomplished. Fun stuff I think.

I cut off literally everyone in my life. But some of those people were abusive, some were just jealous and toxic, some were a bad influence that would never let me achieve my goals. Now all these people I once cared for deeply, I appreciated them and cherished them in my life. however, once I do cut someone off, it's literally as though they never existed. It's strange.....I can't "feel" what its like to miss someone. Maybe cuz I was always in my own world, I learned early on that I am all I have, so I don't depend on people for anything, especially not my happiness or as a means to cure my loneliness. I've always been a lone wolf, and add Bipolar on top......I sort of just don't give a fuck. People think I'm cold....maybe I am. But I know I'm a good person because I don't harm people, I don't lie, cheat or manipulate them. I don't buy into society's bullshit of "Be there for everyone else otherwise you're awful" no. It took me too long to get to a place where I know if I don't take care of myself, no one else will. and that people will spread you as thin as you allow them to. Boundaries were always difficult for me but I've seen how healthy they can make my life, so I'm not afraid to set them anymore. My motto is, be real, be yourself, have the outgoing guts to be yourself and fuck anyone that tries to convince you there's something wrong with you. Having Bipolar it's easy to believe there is something wrong, and I'm still trying to come to grips with this illness and how to cope. In due time I will find ways that work for me. but to be the healthiest version of yourself, you do have to cut people off. So if you're Bipolar and cut people off, trust your intelligence. Usually, you know deep down that you can't connect to them and that for a long time you were convincing yourself that you needed them or didn't wanna hurt their feelings. but....fuck it. Stay true to yourself. No one will ever appreciate you for sacrificing your emotions and desires. You come first. and that's not selfish. It's self-love. anyway.....I just wrote a novel in your comment section Lizzie. Great video as always! Much love.

I'd be really interested if at some point you make a video on how you understand the relationship between the physical/chemical processes of the brain and the "spiritual" elements of the person. Like do you have a take on the philosophical/theological debates about mind-body dualism vs. different sorts of materalism/monism and all the positions in between ("nonreductive physicalism," "emergent dualism," etc.)? I myself have Aspergers and some other things, and so often when I've struggled I've wondered, "is this a spiritual issue, a psychological one, or one that perhaps doesn't fit neatly on either side of this binary?"

@Peter-GG7 жыл бұрын
That's awesome that you wrote on this! I unfortunately haven't done enough reading on it to have a worked-out theory yet, but I'm inclined toward some sort of "holistic dualism." To me it's clear that there's a profound mutual dependence between the mental/spiritual and the physical that goes "all the way down" to our deepest personal identity, but *also* that there's a mysterious "more" in us (bound up with things like consciousness, freedom, love) that can never be reduced to or explained in physical terms alone. E.g., even if we somehow knew every "fact" about a human being, had every possible piece of empirical data about them, we could never master them--they always retain an unfathomable interior depth, they always remain primarily "subjects" irreducible to "objects" (they are always ultimately a "who" and not a "what"), because they are this mystery made in God's image. So to me, "person=mystery" is a big part of what this distinction between body/brain and soul/mind is all about. And Catholic dogma makes this distinction, but I think it's really important that it does so not to separate them but to emphasize their living, integral unity, which is a million miles away from any Cartesian-type dualism (it stresses that our bodies themselves are incorporated into what is "personal" and "spiritual" from the start, thus their destiny for resurrection, and thus the fleshiness of the sacraments, etc.) But there's enormous room for different schools of thought as to precisely *how* this interrelation works, as well as its practical implications ("at what point do I go see a priest/pastoral counsellor or a psychologist for X difficulty?") and that's what I need to delve more into. Your videos provide so much food for thought already though.

I might be the only one but I seem to lack empathy for the most part. Before I developed bipolar, I was extremely empathetic. I'm on so many meds that I'm numb. I feel like a zombie and it's hard to care about anything (usually when I'm depressed). When I'm manic it's hard to even think straight let alone let my brain take a moment to care about something. Ugh -_- I need to change my diet. Ever since I got on lithium 3 months ago I gained 15lbs. I've been binge eating and I need a nutritionist :/

Dizzyallaround im so sorry but I can also relate, mood stabilizers make you feel numb a lot of the time and makes it harder to be empathic or even care about other’s. That is also normal on normal antidepressants for those who are not bipolar, that’s a bad side effect of the medicines, antipsychotics also do that. I was on antidepressants when I was wrongly diagnosed with depression instead of bipolar & my mood was all over the place, I cried one sec and was deeply depressed and minutes later I thought I could take over the whole world and then I suddenly was extremely irritable and my psychiatrist said the antidepressants made me rapid cycling. I was recently diagnosed with bipolar, start on medication in 2 weeks when my antidepressants is completely out of my body. They think I am bipolar 2 as I have never had full blown mania but I have had extreme energy, happiness, felt superiour to others, had grandiose thoughts etc (as they have recalled for me because they saw a dramatic change in the cycling one week and I had used lots of money which isn’t usually how I am like). I thought I was swinging right up again yesterday because I felt really really really great and had no care for the amount of money I used (my mom told me I was acting differently and gave me a sleeping pill). I slept 2 hours, feel cranky (because I slept so little when I took melatonin). I would want to be hypomanic instead because I hate HATE depression so much, it almost drove me to attempt suicide.

Erin-Clare Boulet - Perhaps you can try sending them links to videos like these where they can learn more about their possible mental/personality disorders and tell them that it popped up in your feed, reminding you of what they experience. Try not to come off judgmental or pushy but instead use words that show you are genuinely concerned and supportive.

Hi Lizzie, I work in mental health and am familiar with the symptoms of bi-polar disorder. I have to ask why you choose to live without mood stabilizer meds. Many of my clients who stop meds experience a terrible disruption to their lives . I just font see the benefit of going med free with this diagnosis.

This is so me with the relationships hahaha I do think it's hilarious. I'll be thinking I'm going to marry this person and then the next day just totally over it and just cut them off and not respond to calls or texts. I don't feel bad though because it's out of my control and I don't think I owe anyone an explanation since I feel like us as women are already screwed over by men all the time

Ok here’s the thing I’ve been trying to find out what’s going on with me since I was 11 nothing seems to add up ppl joked I was bipolar but nothing more I did research and I realized this is what I have this is how I feel this is what I’m going through she’s never explained something so better I literally relate to everything she’s saying most of it expect the empathy mine decreases I can feel nothing and at times I feel I could cry about the worlds problems for hours I don’t know 🤷🏾♀️ I think I’m bipolar it makes since and ever since I’ve done the research it seems to stick like I’m finally solving this huge gap who do I turn to ? People will call me crazy if I tell them I’ll never get help and I’ll be stuck like this forever nobody’s listening no body cares but it’s fine I’m fine I’ll be fine at least I keep telling myself I feel like getting help is no far
