    Hello @polarpad

    Welcome to the community! :) Have you got an appointment booked to see someone about possibly having ADHD?

    That's a long wait @polarpad. How are you feeling about everything at the moment?

    Hey

    Javali here. I was diagnosed with bipolar with 37 (7 years ago). I had two episodes, during hipo mania I spent a lot of money but during mania it was like being in the Truman Show, everyone is out to get me. 

    It's very taxing. I am going through a separation because of that but alas gotta try and get past it

    Hey @Javali. You have done so well to reach out. It does sound very taxing. How are you feeling about going through the separation and would anything, in particular, help you at the moment?  :)
