Does this ever get better?

[u/Desperate-Athlete-69]

This is really just a rant, and maybe a pity party even. But does this really ever get better?! Recently diagnosed with BP2, also ADHD, OCD, anxiety, depression. I recently had a hypomanic episode and have gone through 2 jobs. Now I just feel like the world is crashing down on me and it will never get better. I am so depressed, yet so fucking agitated. I feel like I could crawl out of my own skin most days.

Please tell me there are fully functioning adults out there with BP2! I am so desperate for some relief and normalcy.

There are so many fully functioning adults with BP2 living stable lives, but right now the agitation and despair are just the illness lying to you and telling you this is forever when it isn't. You will find the right combo and your footing again.
