High five! Schizoaffective, type 2 bipolar. And some BPD sprinkled on top. Recently I got some changes in my meds and I finally got days when I'm mostly emotionally stable. Is this how people feel? Made me cry. I wish the best for you.

Same to you. I also have some BPD (another horribly misunderstood illness!) to deal with, but I'm old enough and in a stable relationship, so I think most of it is in remission. Bless my wife, because wow. I was a horrible person to deal with when I was younger.

Be well!
