Hey!!!
So erm, yeah..
My name is Juli, and yea, I spell it with no "e". 3nodding (and yea I'm a girl)
Hmm, well, my mom has Bipolar disorder, my dad and sister, and well, pretty much everyone in my family has multiple disorders and problems and stuff, but its all good.
As for me? Well, I think I am Bipolar, and have told my shrink that, so I'm on watch for it.
I love a bunch of bands like Pink Floyd, The Beatles, Nine inch Nails, Marilyn Manson, Placebo, that sort fo stuff...I also have been know to like rap, and some "pop-punk" or whatever it is called. A very diverse selection, if you ask me.
OOO my age....well, I'm 14, today is my half b-day, infact. I'm in the 8th grade, my marks in school bite the dust.
I play guitar and cello, and write poems and stuff, though I'm not good with it...
I love listening to music, as I've said, its my life, hehe. Hanging with friends is good.
...and I like long walks on the beach????
heart heart heart

Guess I'll tell you guys a little bit about myself.
I'm 21, second semester senior in college who graduates in May. Have no clue what kind of job I'll do, I'm just looking for a job. Bipolarism runs in the family. To my knowledge, the diagnosis goes from my dad's sister, me, dad, and then my brother. I was diagnosed when I was 20. I am the lucky one who got diagnosed in the early progression of the disease so I wasn't as bad off as the rest of my family. Wasn't diagnosed as Bipolar 1 or 2, but I'm leaning towards Bipolar 2. When I get depressed, I get angry, violent, and sucidal. I live on Zoloft because I do not like myself when I'm depressed. I have taken Lexapro but it wasn't really working for me. I am also on Depakote though I don't take that the way I should.
I'm lucky in the fact that my disease hasn't overwhelmingly affected my life. I have always done good in school. My doctor things I was always bipolar but the event that triggered me to go into my cycles was me losing my mom at the age of 16 to Leukemia. I also had shitty friends at the time. My friends now are a second family and are very supportive. Especially now when I have begun to rapid cycle again but that is to be expected. My life has become stressful right now with the possiblility of my stepmom's cancer being back so I'm once again on the bipolar emotional rollar coaster. My stepmom is my mom even though I call her by her first name.
I think that's basically it. I have had only one boyfriend, it was all online and I met him through Gaia. Wasn't a great or truly healthy relationship one can say but I learned and I grew from it. Currently single and just living life.
Think that's all I have to say about me. I post sometimes in my Gaia journal but I always post in my livejournal. Journaling helps a lot because I find it hard to sometimes express how I feel to my friends and by writing it in my livejournal, I feel that they can truly get into my head and see what I'm seeing. That can be hard due to the bipolar but they still love me. biggrin I also have an open diary so you can say I have many diaries/journals online. I use livejournal all the time though.
Well, I think I have bored you guys enough with my ramblings. I only have net access when I'm at school so if I go missing for awhile during school breaks, you know why.
Hope this helps you all to learn more about me. Until next time. Laterz.

Hello everyone. I'm a new member that joined on the suggestion of h3rsh3y.
I don't have bipolar (syndrome?) or know anyone outside of Gaia with it. That I know of, of course. I've chatted a few times with different members of this guild at another guild and on a Mistletoe event thread.
I don't know anything about bipolar disorder and I apologize beforehand if I say anything insensitive or ignorant. Please feel free to correct me, I won't be offended.
I'm still learning about Gaia and how it works and h3rsh3y has helped me a great deal. I hope I can make new friends in this guild and support where I can.
Maybe a 'friends of thread' might be in order. If there isn't one now.

Um, hi... *Waves at the crowd*
I'm Diana... And I'm really bad at this kind of thing, so I'm not going to say a lot.
I'm not bipolar, but I am interested in learning about the condition.
I "suffer" from bouts of depression, and what not. Therepy didn't do much for me.. But I suppose that's because I didn't let it.
I'm 19, work at a shitty job, and still live with my parents.
Haa haa, God I sound really bitter.
But, yeah. So, tattoos keep me from going totally insane. I have 7 right now, and they are the only things that I like about myself. ^_^
I also write depressive, angst ridden poetry! Maybe I'll post some sometime!
Thanks a lot for listening. I'll try to be an active member of the community!

Well, I guess it's my turn to give an admission. I'm 20 and live in Kentucky; I was only recently diagnosed with bipolar disorder, although, looking back on my life, its influence is quite obvious. I also have PTSD, so I spend most of my cycles on the lower end of the happiness scale, but with a bit of medicating, I can usually stay pretty perky. School is the most important thing in my life, which is definitely the definition of a nerd, so I suppose you can label me as such. I really like cars, cooking, and video games. Hmm... and boys. They're pretty nice too, as long as they're sexy and they don't talk too much, jk.  I'm the blonde on the left, it's my prom!
