This past year I was diagnosed with Bipolar II and borerline personality disorder. I was also diagnosed with Endometriosis. I have been trying to treat my Edno..but I have been only using thie low horomone birth control pill. I have been experiencing depression and its like almost a switch. I'll be fine for a while then it just hits me. My thoughts are about self-harm but I don't act on these thoughts either. I SIed for over 4 yrs. Plus I repapsed after my best friend suddenly passed away almost 3 yrs ago. I haven't cut since Nov. 2004. I really don't want to start back on that now. I have been avised by another gyno to do the Depo-Lupron shot. But I'm afraid of the side effects/mood swings.

Are you taking medication for your Bipolar illness? I think you should get that under control first. See a psychiatrist asap. Your psychiatrist can work with your ob/gyn to find a medication for your endometriosis that will not cause your bipolar illness to worsen.

you need to talk to your psychiatrist to make sure your treatments for the Endometriosis are not affecting any medication you're taking for the bipolar disorder.
