[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Came onto this post because I'm 15 and I'm going to study childcare in September in college and hope to become a nanny. I have not been diagnosed with bipolar but I match the criteria and even if I don't have it I do have random manic episodes and also depressive episodes. I have also suffered with eating issues/self harm etc. Do you think I should quickly rethink my life and choose something else as no one would want to hire a nanny with mental issues?[/quote] I don't think that this would be a good field for you. I really think you should consider something less isolating and more predictable. I haven't read this entire thread, but I think that even mentally healthy nannies struggle with feelings of isolation and even abandonment by their employers or charges when a job ends, and I think that you may be even more sensitive to these feelings than others.
