Hello everyone, I’m a 25-year-old woman and I’ve been struggling with my mental health lately. I think I may have bipolar disorder, and it’s been really difficult to come to terms with. The mood swings and extreme highs and lows have been overwhelming, and I feel like I’m constantly on edge. It’s been hard to talk about this with my friends and family, but I know I need to seek help. I’m really hoping to find some support and understanding here. If anyone has any advice or experiences to share, I would really appreciate it. Thank you for listening.
