Hi Issi - a big welcome to you! I understand how hard that is when our loved ones don't 'get' us. I have bipolar as well, and I know it's a hard thing for non-bipolar people to understand.
There is so much relief and satisfaction in talking to others with bipolar. I'm fortunate to have a number of fellow-travellers in my life, and we understand each other in a way others can't.
Issi I have a thread on the forum (under Long-term Journeys) called This Bipolar Life. There are a number of lovely bipolar folks on there and we've become a very supportive and fun little gaggle of friends. I'd love you to join us - you'd be very very welcome. If you would like to, just pop in and say hi. We share our experiences and daily goings on, we support each other, share tips and tricks for living with bipolar, and enjoy some general silliness to keep our spirits up. Most importantly, we 'get' each other.
Hope to see you soon
Kaz
