    1 in every 4 people suffer with mental health issues in their lifetime. That sounds pretty average to me ...
    The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.

    I've mostly meant bipolar disorder, suicidal thoughts etc.
    That is true, but in my country unfortunately there is still a stigma related to mental health disorders. Although there have been some good changes in this aspect too.

    But Selena, you can get help with your health issues and if you stick to the medication and eating properly and getting some exercise you can have a perfectly "normal" life. You seem to allow your diagnoses to weigh you down and become who you are. They aren't. You are so lovely and such an awesome person. Just be kind to you..
    Do a little of something that makes you happy every day!

    Have you actually been diagnosed as having bipolar?

    It was one of the doctors' I've seen theory.
    He suspected it, but I needed more exams.

    I want to sort out anything, just don't know how. Mental health assistance here is rather expensive or I need to wait longer.
    Now I'm trying to find a new job with more or less normal salary.

    On the good side, I've bought today two nice bra sets.

    Then don't assume you have it until you have it officially diagnosed by a specialist. You've had a really tough year, it's perfectly normal to be up and down with everything you've gone through.

    I think mental health assistance across the world takes forever unless you can pay - where I live even the self referral IAPT waiting list for treatment is months. Selena, you have to see your doctor.

    Ftr, my official diagnosis is bipolar disorder with anxiety. I don’t think I’m bipolar but ultimately the diagnosis is irrelevant to me, it’s the treatment that matters
