    • About Me

      I work in marketing and entertainment. I love the arts and a huge fan of nature. Though I am single with no children, my family and friends are very important to me. I was just resently diagnosed with bipolar and I am having a hard time controling it especially in my stressful life. But I am a growing Christian and I am constantly working towards building my relationship with God and those around me.

      To be honest, it's been really overwhelming today, the level of crap that's taken place on the boards, etc. But there are lots of people who are here for you, and we're not going to slate and get angry with you either. x

      I'm sorry you're feeling like there's not enough support here for you. The board does tend to get overwhelming sometimes. If you do decide to leave then I hope you find a group to belong to. It's so important for our healing to not feel alone in our struggles.

      We're not all nasty people. Honestly. The drama is to be expected on a BP board, but honest to God - there are some of us who only want to support one another. xxxxxx

      My best friend has been an alcoholic for many, many years. In Nov. 08 he went on a major binger that scared him into wanting to get help. He had been sober for 50 days till New Years. Is drinking prior to quiting was out of control and disruptive. When he is drunk he is like a little boy either throwing a temper tantrum or playful or very sad. I love him terribly and I see that he has so much potential. He is a great person. While sober he has achieved so much. But as a drunk he is hurtful.

      Wears thin after a while.
      Talking Not Working
      He doesn't listen to me. He listens to my advice in the beginning but tend to follow his drinking friends' advice. My feelings tend to not matter. If he hurts me emotionally while he is drinking and I talk with him about it he brushes it off as me contributing to drama. He then gets mad at me. Then I go away.
