Has drug abuse ever triggered a manic episode for you?

Upvotes

I am diagnosed bipolar 1, and I am in active addiction. I primarily drink and do molly, 3-6 times a week. I do worry about triggering a manic episode, but I do not currently plan to get sober. I used marijuana daily for 6 years, and never experienced manic symptoms because of it, outside of my medication-induced mania, in which it made the psychotic symptoms spike. The MDMA though, does make me worry I’m at risk of triggering a manic episode, though my symptoms have remained depressed.

I’ve been waiting for a special someone to go to a boy into a man. Meanwhile I’m doing anything to learn myself. I’m so selfish I have many tantrums throughout the months. So he reaches out and when he does I’m in a love triangle. The person I’m staying with now is suspicious and draws attention to himself (he OD’s into unconscious). All while I’m not finding myself I lose my cool and tell the love of my life to fuck himself. Before this im pacing thinking suicidal I’m calling help and my mom. I should’ve packed my bags but I tell this boy the one I drained myself for to fuck himself. It’s been 12 weeks I’m selfish from all angles and I can’t talk anymore.
