This is the place to talk about your experience with bipolar disorder, learn from others' experiences, and find support.
Tomorrow starts a new week....and another week of me feeling sad, hopeless and anxious. I am waiting for my unemployment claim to be approved. I DESPERATELY need it. I am in a very scary place financially. I don't know what I am going to do. I have thought about moving to be near my sister and nieces. I don't think I should. I lived there for six weeks in 2002 and it didn't end well. My sister was very mentally and physically abusive towards me. I am thinking about moving back to where I came from. I lived there my whole life up until I moved to be near my sister. My good friend told me that I could stay with her till I found a job and place. I am hesitant, though, because she has 5 cats and I am allergic to cats. Also, she lives in a HORRIBLE neighborhood. Very high crime. Idk if it would be the best idea. I also have the choice of staying here and toughing it out. I am not good with change AT ALL. just the thought of moving is sending my anxiety through the roof. I don't know why the last16 months of my life have been so awful. I mean, I KNOW why I have been having trouble keeping jobs (I was dxd with having a cognitive deficit).....I just don't understand why things can't improve? I feel like such a failure. I have never been this low in my life. I am still forcing myself to go to the gym everyday. I just need some structure in my life. I feel so desperate. I also feel a lot of anger. I keep praying for God to help me. I know that He has a plan for me, but right now I feel like I'm hanging off a cliff, getting ready to fall. I am feeling very scared.

Once again I've had a fever today. I'm not going to the hospital because that's a huge waste of time but I did schedule a dr appointment for Wednesday afternoon.
I pray you get some relief soon. Don't give up. You are a strong person and I know you can make it through this. (((hugs)))

The only thing I've learned is don't bar the door against change...we all need to learn new skills and adapt. I agree with Sensitive life changes will take time and planning but they will never happen if you don't now.
All of us live in very uncertain times we don't know if we can keep our jobs, our housing, and we don't know about the future....all we can do is keep learning!
Find something you like something you would gladly do even if you weren't paid and stay with it TC.... don't give up on yourself...Love yourself because none of this is easy ((((hugs)))
