Hello,
This is my first Mumsnet post; so am feeling brave and hopeful that you lovely ladies can help.
Me and my husband are hoping to adopt. I have bipolar - I manage it well, have not been an inpatient for 20 years and am very proactive in asking for help and looking after myself. So I hope there's a good chance my diagnosis won't prevent us being considered as adoptive parents.
Are there any mums on Mumsnet who also have bipolar and who have adopted?
I know the process is very intrusive and we'll be asked all sorts of questions. And that a good support network is vital. I'd love to hear from mums who also have bipolar about how they've managed the process.
Thanks v much :)
