Answer 1

Hi.  I have bipolar.  You can't stop having the illness, but you can stop the mood swings with the proper medication and taking them consistently.  Therapy also helps teach us how to manage stress very well, which is important since stress is a trigger.  If you have been diagnosed and livng at home, talk to your parents and see your doc.  If you're older, see your doc or go get one.  If you are in real bad shape w/o a doctor, go to the ER.  If you haven't been diagnosed, see your regular doctor for a check up and explain what's up.  S/he may give you a referral to a psychiatrist for evaluatoin, but you need to rule out medical problems first.  In any case, you don't have to feel this way, but you do have to ask for help from the right places to get beyond it.

Answer 2

As you've read from the others, you can't stop yourself from being bipolar, and there is no cure, but there are some wonderful medications out there to help us. I was diagnosed over 20 yrs ago and I have been stable on meds for a very long time. Please see a Dr. If you're a minor, please talk to your parent to get help. I am including a link below I would like you to go to first, and read...remember you're not alone...and things will get better. When we want to kill ourselves, its the pain we want to kill not ourselves.
