Costs of Bipolar 2 are just too much
1 psychiatrist Appt, 1 Psycologist appt 1 marriage counselling appt just this week. The costs are getting beyond control and I feel like im getting worse not better. I have been trialling medicatiins unsucessfully for newly diagnosed Bipolar 2 since january and the last lot of meds made me more suicidal (just thoughts and idealisaation) than ever. I am more irritable & angry than ever and yet im trudging back to all of these expensive appts holding out little hope. Perhaps more of a vent but shit no wonder we have such a high suicide rate, getting treated is out of reach for some.

Re: Costs of Bipolar 2 are just too much
Hi @Sirihawi and welcome to the forums!
Health expenses and mental health expenses can be significant it is so true. I'm sorry to hear you had such bad side effects from those medications recently, and are not feeling so hopeful right now about treatment.
I hope you find the forums a really supportive and helpful place. I'd encourage you to have a look around and introduce yourself on this thread if you would like.
Take care of yourself and see you more on here hopefully
