I am not doing to well with my bipolar disorder and I am not responding to my medications. I also have PTSD. This past Saturday I had a really bad time, I was at a very low point and I just wanted to give up. I will be having electroconvulsive therapy after I get a physical and an evaluation. I am a little scared but I am so tired of the bipolar taking over my life. I just want to feel stable again. This is pure hell not being able to feel safe and stable. My psychiatrist referred me for the procedure. I have been on so many different meds and I just don't seem to respond. If it were not for my fiancé I probably wouldn't even be here right now.
