I often visit a wonderful website, it is http://chat.healthyplace.com
They have alot of different rooms, they have a bipolar room, a depression room, an abuse room, etc...most of the people on there are really friendly!

Hi:
I recently just started a Bipolar support group on Yahoo Groups. We meet on Wednesday nights at 10PM. Since I have not learned how to hook the website to a chat room yet we are meeting via IM's. A few minutes before 10PM EST I send out the invitations to come to a conference IM and that is where we are temp. meeting till I can figure out the chat room part.
We welcome you to join us, they are a great group of very friendly people suffering from Bipolar and it's associated illnesses.
Also on the website are files that you can download full of great Bipolar and More information. Go to:
www.health.groups.yahoo.com/Bipolar_and_More
Please send me your IM so I can add you to the groups list for the conference meeting IM's. I really do hope you and anyone else to come and join us.
Also, feel free to contact me at any time for any reason. Most of the time I am on the pc. My contact information is in my profile, use it when ever you want to.
Be safe and be well

Hi... i am a member of a mental health forums on line, and you are very welcome to join our group. We don't have chat yet, but plan to in the future.
We are a very small group, mostly bipolars, in fact. Our ages range from teens to 50's....not a lot of active members, but we are there daily offering support and care to one another.
You can talk about anything -- from your issues with bipolar disorder, what you've done in your day, your pets, your life story, current feelings and issues, etc.. Whatever you are feeling like discussing at the time.
I like the forums because i know others with the same issues are there and listening. Even though they can't fix me, they do tend to understand.
I have posted the link below.
Also, you can do a yahoo search on BIPOLAR SUPPORT GROUP, BIPOLAR CHAT, BIPOLAR FORUMS for more information.

The following site came up when I did a simple search: http://www.support4hope.com/ . It is for support of people living with bipolar disorder. The best place to find information on mental health is NIMH (National Institute of Mental Health), and from their page I linked to this page http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/bipolardisorder.html , which had lots of info and links. I would recommend contacting your local mental health facility for info on support groups in your community as well. Internet support groups can be great, but it is also great to have a *real* hug and speak with people in your community dealing with the same thing.
Good luck to you, and I'm glad you're seeking information!

Try the Depression, Bipolar Support Alliance website. They have locations for support groups across the country.

Another one to try is the National Alliance on Mental Illness. They too identify support groups across the country.

Nope, in no way have, yet we've had most of the genuine factor. If it turns you on in spite of the undeniable fact that then do it. If it does not than do no longer. purely do those issues that turn you on as much as they turn on your boyfriend. comparable is going for him and your fantasies. no person needs to be coerced into doing something they do no longer desire to do.
