      I know what you are going through! I replied to your "mornings" post. I am the same way...feels like you were run over by a truck or something!

The only time I have a "good" morning is when I don't have to have the alarm clock wake me and nothing else disturbs me during the early morning sleeping hours!!

    • Close Family & Friends of Bipolar

      I am the mother of a 22 year old young man who was diagnosed with BPD about one year ago. My son questions his diagnosis , and I in turn sometimes do as well. However , deep down , i know that something is wrong. He is just now moving home after having had his own apt for almost a year . He grew up in my household and in his late teens stayed with his dad off and on. I have five other children at home and am raising them on my own.
