I have found that "normals" just don't get it.

Not that I'm aware of, but WOW that sounds like a good idea.

NOT advisable
According to statistics people with the same neurosis should not be alone together for more than a few mins at a time.
It seems
You could feed off each other and in seconds you could be buying every CD in the state. Or worse form a suicide pact.
It has been wondered if the notorious gangsters "Frankie and Johnny" were not just partners in crime but partners in Bi-polar ism.
Its nice you want to get to know people with a personality similar to yours but I think I would stick to rock climbing or White water rafting.... believe it or not it sounds less dangerous than what you are planning to do.
Have fun!

I'm bipolar, and I agree with the general trend on here-it is probably not a good idea to seek out another bipolar person for a romantic relationship. It could be awfully volatile. I'm bipolar, and my husband is mentally stable, and he helps keep me stable. When he's crabby, like anyone gets, or blue, it really set me off. I can't imagine what it would be like if he were as blue as I get!!

You would be better off joining a local support group, like NAMI (see NAMI.org) for friendships with other people with bipolar, and date out on the "open market."

Good luck!

two bipolar people should not date eachother its very hard to get along with someone else who is bipolar. Especially if left untreated, it could be an extreamly violent relationship with a lot of rocky times.

How wrong you are! First off education is a great place to start and your best weapon against bipolar. I have rapid cycle bp2. I have been on the medications and have educated myself about them as well. Medication too should be used as a tool, Few of us should remain on pills for more then a year, thing is there are side effects from every medication out on the market, funny but weed has 0 and its illegal. Lets take lithium for instance, it begins to eat your bone marrow after a year or so. That's just one! Education into what we have is the best thing you can do for you! I am on nothing now for years except meditation. Some of us cant do it this way alone however, but... most can even though you wont hear that from the professionals who by the way don't have bp! Its a matter of choosing a person just like anyone else, and you either choose wrong or not, that's dating in any ones case.
Yes, I have dated others with bp. If you go by the symptoms then most of the world is bp!!!! To say that it isn't good for two people to date with bp is wrong! It depends on the people themselves, who better can understand bp then those who suffer from it? As long as you truly take the time to know what you have and understand the mechanics of it, why not? To say don't date anyone else with bp is the same as saying we should not date anyone, we are broken. WRONG! We are not! We just need to be aware of our emotions a bit more then others and make sound decisions on what's justified emotion and what is not. If you can do that, you have one up on bp. Don't let a label or another who either doesn't have bp or has it but don't understand it enough to keep it in check, tell you not to date others with bp. We make excellent partners for those who have what we do too. Takes one to understand one! Who better?
Yes there are date sights for bp!!!!! Just look it up online and you will find them.
As to you so called professionals, this is a business and your main interest is to keep the pharmacy's and physiologists in business! Try educating your patients! If bp is so much a medical or physiological condition, why then in so many years have NO cures come about???? As a matter of fact what has the medical community really cured in the past forty years?????? I see plenty of drugs however. Funny but if you look it up oil is not the number one industry and money maker in the world, its pharmacy. Pharmacy controls our fertilizers, animal feed and the food chain, our everyday life in products and is responsible for more wrong then good medicine. In the days of old we suffered from disease, we still do! Phycology is a big fat gray area and what has grown in this field but the number of drugs and patients on them? Lets look at PROCTOR AND GAMBLE...they make BARE ASPRIN... Also made the gas that killed all during the holocaust!!! Still a company today! These are the types of company's we trust??? Im glad and proud to have bipolar under control! It took a lot of work! Self understanding and time. We will never not have bp, but we can learn to use it to our advantage, every part of it!
Bp has to be allowed to cycle. Allow that don't fight it! that's where the problem comes in, you cant think it away. Let it out in a constructive way at your convenience, art, music, writing...all good ways! Feel like hell? Write it down how you feel holding nothing back....it lets it out...vent! Read it later and you will see the patterns we all have in our way of thinking. You can live with bp just fine if you understand that it is your own mind! What better to defeat you then your own mind? That's the hard part people don't get. If you think of a way to hide from bp, your mind will always find a way to suck you back into it because its part of you. Well... live with it! Learn to use bp... it can be an awesome advantage in the up cycle we have awesome energy! We are mostly creative out of the box thinkers, that awesome!!! As far as the lows... use them too... write sad, paint ugly...let it out and it cant hide! Give it no place to hide and stop trying to fight what is you! You will always win over bp if you do. You cant fight it but you can steer it and control it to your advantage. DATE OTHERS WITH BP! We are not broken people, just misunderstood by those who don't have what we do. Above all stop listening to bs from people who really don't know a thing about us other then what a book or a few say. I can write a book on cancer and how breathing clean air gives it to us. If I make it make sense, how many people would take it as truth????? My name is Walt, I have bp! Im a normal human being just like everyone else, please stop classifying us as different like diseased lepers !!!! If you met me, you would never know I had bp.
