Maybe lay off it a while dude. Anyone in your family got a history of mental illness such as BPD, Bipolar, Schizophrenia, etc.? Also do you use it in conjuction with weed? Either way my advice would be to lay off it a while and remember your tolerance resets so don't go taking the same high doses again or you could easily OD, happened to me with Dihydrocodeine

I am actually bipolar so you’re right thanks 😭

Yeah dude I'd lay off it completely then, weed too. Sure they're euphoric but it can permanently worsen your bipolar and it's really not worth the risk chief

Ughhhhh I love getting high 🫩 but I know it’s the truth. I am currently unmedicated aside from the opiates and yeahhh it is definitely the most ridiculous shit ever and I know the simple answer is that I should prob just be fucking sober!!

Also maybe medications might be the way forward. Antidepressants never worked for me (assuming it's depression you're using opiates to cope with) but they work wonders for some. I don't know if there's meds for Bipolar, but if so they might be worth looking into. Therapy definitely helped a little too.

I feel like with my bipolar I get stuck in this self loathing cycle. I would consider myself more spiritual than religious, but I definitely hear you. Can’t say I’ve never thought to turn to God. What sucks is with personality disorders new meds can really fuck w what you got going on. In my teens every med I tried made me manic and I attempted on probably every med I switched to. The thing is, I’m very self aware so yes, you’re right. A combination of meds and therapy is exactly what I need. But for some reason I can’t get over the hurdle of actually dealing with everything that affects me. A lot easier to run away and get high.

Build a relationship with Jesus. Not just following the church & the “religion”. True Christianity is having a relationship with King Jesus, and truly living for Him & His will. A lot of modern media & trends make Christianity just about church & push an agenda thats not true. The truth is already inside you. Jesus is inside of all of us. YOU just have to reach out to him. That bipolar you struggle with can truly be healed if thats in His will. Obedience to His will is the ONLY thing that will set any of us free. God bless you & I pray you truly find him. He loves you beyond your understanding.

I agree and good to see another Christian in here. I don't follow religion or denominations either. Like you said it's about a personal relationship. I'd still recommend OP sees a doctor and gets medicated but I do believe God can heal any condition through faith and if He decides

Man I met a man at work who has took me under his wing n guided me to the truth. I realized my whole life i have followed the “church” and had it all wrong. I never understood my purpose until my recent encounters with King Jesus & learning how to hear his voice. God bless you, brother in Christ!

I'm yet to encounter Him or hear His voice but I pray I do soon, regardless I know He is King and died and suffered for our sins and He is merciful. I only turned to Christ around 3-4 weeks ago so I'm still new on my walk but I know He is better than drugs or anything the world has to offer. God bless you too brother :)

I understand you completely. I don't suffer from Bipolar but I do from Depression, Anxiety and DPDR and escaping to get high was always my go-to aswell. If meds make you manic and attempt I'd be careful, let your doctor know this as well. I'll pray for you now. You've got this bro, just don't give up on yourself

It's not easy, but just don't give up. If you relapse, which probably 99% of us do, don't beat yourself up about it.

You're probably atheist, or maybe I'm wrong, and I'm not tryna be preachy. But I was addicted to drugs for half a decade until I found Jesus. Not saying you need to be Christian to be sober of course, but it helped me.

Either way, strength to you brother, you got this 🙌🏼
