I would love to meet some friendly faces.

not myself, but I have quite a few close family members (aunt, cousins, parent, sibling) that have dealt with bipolar disorder for many years. Although I have not dealt with it personally I feel like having a solid support net is important, I know I try my best to support my family members who have dealt with it, so I know their difficulties. It definitely influenced me to go into psychology and neurology.

I have bipolar 2. It's tough to be motivated during low phases. Exercise and nutrition can make such a big difference. I started a Facebook Page a couple of years ago. https://m.facebook.com/SingaporeBipolarBear

Does anyone else have Aspergers? (I was going to start a new thread, but saw that I had made this one). I made a thread a while ago about being depressed and having Aspergers, and it had some really interesting replies but got deleted because I broke one of the rules, without realising
