My Bipolar Blog http://www.lithiumandchips.com has been shortlisted a number of times for various awards set by the English arts council and is currently nominated for the Manchester blog awards 2011

The blog is a light hearted look at my life with bipolar to try and prove that there is life after diagnosis

I’d like to nominate the following blog — it doesn’t “market” itself as a bipolar blog, but instead as a pre-med student blog. The student, mid-twenties, writes very intimately about her experiences being hospitalized in the middle of the semester and eventually honing in on a diagnosis of bipolar II.

Hi, can someone point me in the direction of something very basic? please. I’m bipolar I or II or something… different doctors say different things. I stuck to my bipolar I doctor for 2 or 3 years. Recently, Everything changed drastically… New country, new language, new responsibilities, etc. My new life has a beautiful family to whom i’m still some kind of stranger and, it lacks my girlfriend, my friends, my apt and surroundings, my doctors, my pets… I could keep going and start enjoying feeling sorry for myself… I went back for a visit and I triggered something very bad! I lost control… I lost a lot more than that! wires are crossed and this post is my first effort against apathy. newbie at this. Thanx

I am not a textbook or an information site about Bipolar. What I try to express in my blog is the reality of having a mental health illness. There is hundreds of websites that label me with Bipolar and a long list of classic symptoms. No one talks about how you actually feel and the reality of the condition. No one fits into textbook criteria, in fact all mental health conditions overlap incredibly. Just because two people are labelled with Bipolar doesn’t mean they feel the same, react the same, are medicated the same or have any of the same symptoms. My blog is an inside view of my life, my real thoughts, opinions, emotions, feelings and actions of how someone really feels with Bipolar

Has anyone seen the “Raging Innocence” blog (http://raginginnocence.wordpress.com/)? It is fantastic, and worth a mention.

I have a question. I am Bi-polar and ofcourse everybody treats me like crap in my family, doesn’t want me around. I no longer have any friends. I never really had any friends since childhood, since I was bi-polar and then undiagnosed. I became homeless and lived with my father, who bought me a house just to get me out of his. My 25 year old son lives with me, and is going to start college in two weeks. I get the sinking feeling that he doesn’t want to live with me either, and I don’t really blame him. Life had to be a bitch growing up with an undiagnosed bi-polar mother. I’m on meds now but I don’t think it’s going to change anything as far as our mother/son relationship. I feel the damage has already been done. I think maybe I should give him the house and move out. Right now I am supporting him financialy with my disability check. I don’t feel bad about it because I want him to finish college and have a good life. But I still feel that I should get out of his life, and let him be? It’s got to be tough and embarassing to live with your mother at 25, and tough living with a mother who is a loonytoon. Should I move away? I’m on Lamictal 150 mg. I’m starting to get depressed again. Is there other meds that might work better for the depression, and still keep the manic at bay? And should I move out of my family’s lives? I get the feeling that they would all be better off without me. Why is it so hard for others to understand that being bi-polar is tough, and I don’t mean to be a pain in the ass? Sometimes I don’t understand it myself, but how do you make people understand? How can you let them know that you love them when they think you’re insane, and don’t take you seriously? Should I move away?

This is a new website that looks at bipolar disorder from two points of view i.e. that of a sufferer, and that of a supporter.

Yeah yeah, shamelessly nominating my blog as well. http://lifenotworking.blogspot.com
It’s more of a diary and a way for me to vent about the daily struggles, and it’s a good way to map my moodswings. For some reason people read it. I’ve been diagnosed wit Bipolar disorder type II for six years, and I just started a new medication.

I’m giving myself a pat on the back for the design.

[...] Perhaps that’s why last year’s (yes, there was The List Last Year) they went for “confessional” and selected a list of heart-on-the-sleeve journals like Seaneen’s or mine. Surely enough, many of these have disappeared since, and I can’t really form an idea of how brutal they were. (If you haven’t noticed, I consider “brutal” to be a good thing) This year, they went limp and mixed in the odd confessional journal with ”resource-y” stuff. See the chain of truthiness becoming a ring already? Have you followed through the fall of Enron and Worldcom? The resource-y stuff includes their own blog, John MacNamy’s stuff (this, er, person, who somehow became an about.com editor; I can’t say all the things that I have to say about John MacNamy because it wouldn’t fit on the margin of this journal), “Yoga” and (get this!) “Wellness” writers, a man on a diet who sounds like a very nice person but isn’t heavy (pun unintended; sorry, dude) on mental health issues and one Sandy Naiman that’s on the extreme Battle of the Stigma scale that he wouldn’t read like a human being anymore — even if he avoided all the “wellness” stuff! I was puzzled until I figured out (from further investigation on the URL) that he’s a pro, working for The Star, a canadian newspaper. [...]
