I Have Manic Depressive...

...Will I ever recover from it fully?

i dont know whats really going on with you but it would help if you gave me a lil more info...?

is Manic Depression like a really deep depression? lol sry i duno all of the names for the depressions out there lol

thanks.

yea I have major manic depressive. its a type of depression where you can feel all gloomy one day or for a week or month, then you feel happy and you think you are doing better. you can be happy for a couple days or weeks and months, but then you get depressed again. its like mood swings. and its serious. thats what i know from health class.

Well, there isn't exactly a cure for it, yet, but you are able to function with meds.

Bipolar Type B, one minute your up, the other your down, or sometimes the degrees vary by days, or months, but there's always a pattern of giving things away, being really friendly to everybody, spending lots of money, sleep deprived, anxious to being completely anti-social, moody, lazy, apathetic.

Bipolar Type A's in my experience have been extremely sensitive to even the most constructive criticism, and are prone to be more than a little violent.

:O can you have both A and B?? cause i think i do. thats mostly the reason why i need psycho therapy and they're putting me on meds because im a violent person and threaten people a lot and think of nasty things doing with dead bodies...and the other. ill be happy and friendly. then the next day ill tell people to piss off.

really can u have both a and b? because how u said it and the discriptions it sounds like i have both

yay! meds!

wow...i have never heard of manic depression. but the thing where you can feel all happy for one week and then the next feel sooo depressed, thats exactly what happens to me. i'm not sure if this is what it is...i've never been to a doctor. i really can't though because if i did they would wonder about my "mysterious" bruises.

Sorry.
