Welcome to Bipolardream! This group was created by Elves whose mission is to offer support, encouragement, kindness, and educate others with bipolar disorder also aged 18-30.
It is important that we raise the awareness and acceptance of ourselves and out disorder, showing to society how bipolar can effectively be handled (even by younger people), and that we don't allow ourselves to get overwhelmed by disabling stigma, especially at our age. Also, as young adults with bipolar, we face special issues with college, beginning sexual life, use and abuse of smart drugs and so forth. Acceptance of this illness is not an easy process but can be done with support, kindness, time, and education and a very good psychiatrist.
Elves are constantly researching and learning new things about this disorder so to share them with our younger members and strive together towards stability. It is our hope that you will feel at home here and become involved as you feel comfortable.

Bless you!
The Elves
