My bi polar 2

[Eagleheart]

I was diagnosed with bi polar 2 a few years ago and I still don't understand it fully. I know that it is a less intense type than bi polar 1 but I don't know anyone else who has it.
Mine seems to manifest mainly as severe episodes of depression with fleeting moments of extreme mania, when I feel invincible and like I can do anything. But always, after the high, comes a crashing low. It's mentally and physically exhausting. I would be keen to hear about others experience of this disorder.

I have heard of Bipolar 2 but I don't know the difference between it and Bipolar 1.
I will try and find some info about it I think then post it
