So this past saturday was prom for me (May 3)
Things went all wrong that night before we (me and my friends) even got to prom. My date called said he couldn't make it, everyone else had a date but me and to top it off i woke up just feeling like straight crap
so all day ever since i woke up i was in a crappy mood, severely iritable and snapped at everyone, sometimes without realizing it. I also hadn't taken my meds for 3 days before and still hadn't that day. so i became depressed.. crying every 10 minutes, thinking about how i wanted to jump out of the car and all that. so i could feel my friends were getting aggrevated but i just couldnt stop feeling that way as hard as i tried.
so i didnt end up going to prom even though i spent 400 bucks to go.
but i get a call from my friend yesterday and she told me i was being selfish that night and told me all these things that i said (which i dont recall saying), she said i had a shitty tone (at times i did but she named times when i thought i was talking normal), then she told me she thought my bipolar was an excuse and that i can control my emotions whenever i want...
and just going on and on about that and she didnt care what i had to say
so I printed some stuff out about bipolar and also wrote basically my life story.
and if she doesnt understand after that then idk what to do. because without her and this other girl i dont really have any friends
all anyone has to say about me at school is that im a slut, a whore, weird, ugly and nasty. and im actually a nice person when im not going through one of my stages or taking my meds. please help me out here... what should i tell her if she doesnt get it after i give her that paper?

And I know im prolly all late in replying haha but still...
You shouldnt get off yur meds. that makes things wrose...WAYYY worse. So yeah if you can , dont get off them unless you talk to yur doctor.
And pffft well i dont know your friends. but I think that was pretty rude that she said you were being selfish. And that you could control yur emotions. 'Cause you cant. i know I cant. i TRY so hard but ...idk you cant. Most of the time.
And yeah well...if she doesnt get it after that paper.....just ...get new friends.
or dont be afraid to be alone! :o
Hahah....yeah ...cause theyre yur friends and they should try to understand you. At least yur trying to inform them about it.
And eff school. I swear you never see those kids again after you graduate.
....well I live in california so theres loads of people...but yeah.
I hope things got sorted out with you and -hug-
sorry i wrote like a whole book here :D
