Hi
Does anybody know of Cyclothymic patients who succeeded (with or without any treatment, with med treatment or with psychotherapy only) to accomplish reasonable profession studies, find a long lusting relationship, reach satisfactory life, career….?
Thanks, Erla

Cyclothymia is towards the less severe side of the bipolar spectrum. It certainly isn't a barrier to a "successful life". Many people with more severe disorders manage to live successful lives. It's my official diagnosis. With a combination of medication and therapy, I lead what would be considered to be a highly functional life. I have held down the same job for many many years, and am still married to my high school sweetheart. My struggles are mainly private ones.
This is the end of the thread.
