Welcome!
This is a safe place to discuss, vent, and share information about bipolar disorder. It is also a place for peer support and comfort.
Please use empathy and common sense when posting and commenting. We are all in this together, let’s stay kind and civil.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules
- If you are having thoughts of suicide, please call a friend, family member, 988 in the US, or find transportation to your closest emergency room (call 911 in the US).
- Please be sensitive when discussing suicide and self-harm. Posts threatening suicide are subject to immediate removal.
- Posts containing medical advice or diagnosing others are not allowed. If you are posting about traditional or alternative treatment methods, please keep the post focused on your personal experience.
- We do not allow promotion, solicitation, or affiliate links. For interviews, surveys, and studies, please contact the moderators.
- Harassment of any kind is not tolerated. Do not harass any user for any reason including treatment plan/medication adherence, race, religion, gender, sexuality, disability, etc.
- You may post bipolar memes and jokes as well as serious content. This rule may change later at the community’s discretion.

If you then see an ad advertising the new sand and clams burger from McSandals, believing it is a message sent directly to you from big Air Conditioning, giving you secret instructions to take out a loan and take the next flight to Hawaii to taste their sand, screening it for spiritual impurities to report back to big AC to ultimately save the world from an upcoming Sandaliens invasion, it's psychotic mania
