Question:
Is extreme paranoia common with severe bipolar disorder?
Even on meds (lithium, etc). What about the ability not to cope with any stress at all? Anxiety attacks... low self-esteem... inability to enter into dating relationships?
oh... it's not me. I'm trying to decipher the behavior of a friend who is diagnosed bipolar and is currently in a depressive episode...
Answers:
Bipolar has some psychotic events but they are not necessarily paranoia. She became extremely afraid during a psychotic period. The removal of such is very slow because it is a chemical memory. The depression is from her bad expectations for love and sex. The upper brains had to erase a false belief and the depression chemicals were a waste product. The medication is to dull the effects. She has to avoid false expectations and be calm to recover. The spinal fluid is cleansed very slowly thus releasing the lower brain to operate properly. There is much more to consider about emotional imbalances but this is a beginning. Search my answers for more or message me on Q and A. You should be able to follow this stuff unemotionally.
