Concerns of Bipolar Disorder Self Injury
One form of bipolar disorder self injury that is coming most recently into the public consciousness is self mutilation, or "cutting". This practice is found in people with other diagnoses, too. Bipolar people are just some of those who self injure.
Cutting, burning or other self harming behaviors are often seen in adolescent girls and others, even in men. Much of this is a part of bipolar disorder self injury.
Although people who self mutilate are often depressed or beyond that, suicidal, these acts are not intended as suicide attempts. They are often desperate acts of those who feel out of control, worthless, or angry. It is no wonder, given the similar symptoms, that this is often a case of bipolar disorder self injury.
Suicide, of course, is the most extreme form of bipolar disorder self injury. Before suicide, there may be suicidal ideations, plans for suicide, and possibly many attempts before suicide is committed, if it ever is. In any case, all threats of bipolar disorder self injury should be taken seriously.
Suicidal thoughts may cloud the thinking of a depressed person to the extent that he or she can think of nothing else. It may seem that the world would be better off without them, or that they can show others that they should have been treated better. At this stage there is concern of bipolar disorder self injury, but the ideas are just at a simmer.
When a person begins to make plans, the danger of bipolar disorder self injury becomes more imminent. A person may make elaborate plans for years. Another person may only think of a plausible way to go about it. The trouble is that either of these people may at any time actually commit suicide. It is never easy to predict the likelihood of bipolar disorder self injury.
Many times a person's suicidal tendencies will not be noted unless an attempt is made. While some attempts seem more serious than others, a wise person will treat all attempts seriously. More serious attempts could be those where a note was found, or the outcome was more certain in comparison to other sorts of attempts. Bipolar disorder self injury is always possible in these situations.
Whatever the method of attempt at bipolar disorder self injury, there is seriousness attached to it. After all, people who have attempted suicide in the past are 40 times more likely to commit suicide than those who never have attempted it before.
If a person begins to make final arrangements, or to set his or her affairs in order for no particular reason, suicide may be on his or her mind. It could be as simple as giving away possessions, or as complex as making financial arrangements. If this is suddenly seen in a bipolar individual, it should be determined whether or not that person is in danger of bipolar disorder self injury.
Many thoughts, plans, or attempts actually do end in suicide. 11 percent of deaths in the US are as a result of suicide. More women than men attempt suicide, but 80 percent of the deaths by suicide are by males. More and more adolescents are committing suicide every year. Bipolar disorder self injury, then, is a distinct and growing problem.
It is difficult enough dealing with the affective, social, legal, and physical consequences of the disease. Self harm and suicide make attention to bipolar disorder self injury most necessary.

I have bi-polar disorder type 2,I was finally, properly diagnosed in 2005 and put on tegretal and went through a dialectict behavioural therapy group for 8 months and I am doing very well today. I moved my brother in with me in November of 2007 because he was very depressed,had thrown away most of his clothes and was getting his affairs in order and going to commit suicide. I told him about all my suicide attempts for years and my mood swings etc. and told him there was lots of help out there. I encouraged him to get to his doctor because I could clearly see after living with him a short while that he was bi-polar too. His doctor sent him to a psychiatrist, I told him to get the psychiatrist to put him on the same meds as I am on but the psychiatrist said no, he wanted him to try lithium, so he put him on lithium. My brother became so manic and even though he was on unemployment insurance he spent every cent he had shopping second hand shops and filling my house and yard full of furniture and other stuff. Then he decided to go through a course offered by unemployment to start his own business, he was going to get a store and sell all his stuff he'd bought. I asked him to slow down ,test the waters first and do some garage sales but he was so manic on the lithium he would"nt listen so I gave him 2 months notice to move out because I just couldn't handle him any longer. He moved out somewhat, put all the stuff he'd bought into storage lockers. He had run his credit cards up as well into the thousands of dollars. Just before I went out west on my vacation he came to see me and apologized to me for not respecting me,my home or my help in trying to slow him down. He had decided not to do the store thing anymore. I suggested we both go see his psychiatrist to get his meds changed and I suggested he get into the dialectic behavioural therapy group and also that the family would pay his debts with the credit cards and he agreed. While I was out west he stayed in my house to look after my cat and his cat since he couldn't take his cat to his new place. When I came back from vacation he still hadn't moved all his belongings out and we talked a lot and became very close. He would come by every day to see his cat and have tea and chat with me before I went into work. Then the worst happened, he waited until september 12th for my sister to get back from her vacation and in the wee hours of september 13th he took his life inhaling from a helium tank. Needless to say I am absolutely devastated, feeling very guilty for putting him out of my home and furious with the psychiatrist for not trying him on the tegretal, especially since we are of the same family with the same genetics. I have heard so many horror stories about a lot of suicides with people on lithium. I will never forgive that damn psychiatrist, if he wanted to try him on meds why not try my brother on the same meds that another family member is on? My kind, musically talented, gentle loving brother is now dead, I am so devastated and now in greif councelling and can only hope that the psychiatrist gets the karma he deserves because the only reason he wanted my brother to try the lithium is that it is a way more expensive medication than the tegretal. I wish there weren't any psychiatrists that are nothing but pill pushers but unfortunately there are.

Do you have any hints for taking good pictures of nails? I know it has a lot to do with bad lighting in here but all I'm getting is blurry shots when i try to capture the designs I try. What setting works best, and what's the best alternative to sunlight?
