Bipolar Disorder Support Group
Bipolar disorder is not just a single disorder, but a category of mood disorders marked by periods of abnormally high energy and euphoria, often accompanied by bouts of clinical depression. This is the place to talk about your experience with bipolar disorder, learn from others' experiences, and find support.
I correlated the 7 deadly sins to bipolar disorder and it's symptoms... this makes me feel the need to go to confession because i accomplished all these sins... tell me what you think... can you add to anything? do you feel the two have nothing to do with each other?
Pride: In mania - obviously when we get vain and overly obsessed with ourselves (Inflated self-esteem)
Sloth: In Depression - laziness, we hide in our corners until the meds kick in...
Greed: shopping sprees, impetuous travel, high-risk business investments, fast driving
Gluttony: we gain weight, we lose weight
Envy: Low energy levels and apathy
Wrath: irritability in both mania and depression, suicidal thoughts
Lust: Impulsiveness, a reckless pursuit of gratification, more and sometimes promiscuous sex
