No one I know in my life has bipolar. And I feel like even if they did it would be hard to compare to them. For me I have around 2-3 friends which are pretty toxic and I need to unfriend but it’s so difficult because it makes the depression worse when I get bored. When I’m hypo/manic I’m always looking for things to do and when there isn’t anything to do the intrusive thoughts start coming to me. I’m 17m rn so I’m wondering if you guys have had similar experiences and how you overcame them. I socially isolate a lot as well and feel unmotivated to make new friends when depressive. It’s honestly just so hard living with this I’m so over it. I’ve only recently been diagnosed and my meds stopped working and I started hallucinating again and it’s just never ending. I can never get a break from it and it’s driving me crazy
