Re: Bipolar and anxiety? - February 20th 2010, 06:56 PM

Hey Becca,
It is possible that you have both anxiety and bipolar but I suggest talking to your doctor to see for sure. As for dealing with your anxiety, find a coping skill that works for you. Some common ones are deep breathing, positive thoughts, and listening to music to distract yourself. Also, maybe ask your therapist if you can try CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy) with her. It's really helpful in changing your anxious thoughts into more constructive ones and finding the right things to do when your anxious. PM me if you need anything.
Take care,
Alessa
