Hi there!
I am new to this forum and really needed to reach out. I was diagnosed with Bi-polar about 3 years ago. With that said, I have struggled with my identity, what my interests are, and what I want to do with my career- Which by the way, I had completely lost because I was so sick (un-diagnosed). Ever since my diagnosis I have been struggling to keep a job or even know what I am interested in anymore. Before I was "mentally ill"/didn't really present any major signs of Bi-polar (for all I know), I was on top of my game and offered a partnership for a company straight out of University- I was a high achiever and knew exactly what I wanted. Then fell fast and hard. I'm struggling to pick myself up. I have tried cognitive behavioral and somatic experiencing, obviously i am on medication, I have had a life coach twice, "mentors", I have read what seems like a million self help books/articles....I guess I am just wondering if anyone else has ever experienced confusion like this? Any insights? Am I missing some type of resource?
