A story about a high school friend who had bipolar disorder.jpg

From now on, I will share a story about my actual experience with bipolar disorder during high school.

Symptoms of someone with bipolar disorder and how it feels to those around them

You will be able to see it.

 

There was a friend in my first year of high school who was very mischievous.

Usually, like with ADHD, I interrupt the teacher while they are speaking from time to time.

He was someone who couldn't control his impulses to the point where he kept asking questions and couldn't progress with the class.

So much so that the kids even suggested creating a "000 Law" (e.g., Hong Gil-dong Law) named after that friend.

I endured pain for a year because of that friend, and before I knew it, I moved up to the second year.

 

Usually, by the second year of high school, students should become more mature or reflective about their future careers.

I was still worried that it would be noisy and hurt my ears.

The new semester started, and that friend completely changed and came back like a different person.

 

The head looks as if it hasn't been washed, and the lips are chapped and cracked.

My face is swollen like I just woke up.

It was so quiet that it seemed like people had completely lost their vitality and were on the verge of death;;;

It seems like they didn't wash properly in reality, so there was also a smellㅠㅠ

Usually, the kid with a loud voice can't answer well, doesn't make eye contact, and tends to withdraw.

Sitting there with a pale face, I felt sorry for him.

 

I happened to get paired up with someone, so I ended up staying by their side the whole time.

Too scary

One day, suddenly, a lot of people showed up all at once!!!!!!

 

Suddenly, you're acting familiar with me and even starting a conversation...

It couldn't go back to being like the first year, and it got worse.

My voice is getting louder and higher in tension...ㅠㅠ It was not just once or twice that my eardrum was about to burst.

 

Later, I heard from the teacher that I got sick because of family problems.

They said I have bipolar disorder...ㄷㄷㄷㄷ

I thought that bipolar disorder was when your mood changes drastically every day, about once every ten seconds.

I felt good for a few days, then extremely depressed for a few weeks... and so on.

I thought that even in the first year, the child had some paranoia, couldn't control impulses, and had severe emotional swings.

I think that was also a kind of bipolar disorder symptom.

 

People are truly unpredictable.

The kid who I thought only caused trouble in the first year, by the second year, he...

She has become extremely emaciated to the point that I wonder if she might die from this.

I wasn't feeling well...

One day, I was extremely high-spirited...

 

Anyway, this is the bipolar disorder symptoms I experienced.

Before experiencing this friend, I thought bipolar disorder was just a topic that appeared only in movies.

Seeing someone experiencing bipolar disorder in real life makes me feel more scared and sympathetic.

 

If you are experiencing severe depression or mania... to prevent it from spreading to bipolar disorder.

Search for early symptoms of bipolar disorder and take preventive measures.

I just hope everyone takes care of their mental health.

 

Then I'll end it here~~
