Bipolar disorder 2 and being a mother.

I'm a mother of a smart and handsome 2 year old and beautiful and always happy 5 month old.

I've been diagnosed recently with bipolar disorder 2 with rapid cycling ( with my first I thought it was Postpartum depression but until recently understood that it wasn't PPD)

I'm 25 and married and it wasn't until I was a mother that I started to see the signs and symptoms of bipolar.

I have the hardest time with being less aggravated. I learning ways to cope and to understand my highs and lows but the worst is when I'm super irritable.

I'm learning to be the best mother I can be while dealing with this.

I'm just wondering if they're any other mommas out there with bipolar disorder?
