Bipolar Disorder Support Group

This is the place to talk about your experience with bipolar disorder, learn from others' experiences, and find support.
What are your goals this week?

Any ways to stay out of a funk in your plans?
Are you visiting your pdoc? therapist? going to any groups?
working? volunteering?
Any self-care tips you can share?
For me, I am feeling myself slipping into depression. I'm having lots of side effects, or so it seems, from my new birth control device, and I think it may have set off depression - That is, in fact, one of the listed side effects, even for those without mental illness. Worried.
I have no plans today but I need to at least go to the library to study so I can get out of the house. The time with my dog at the park this morning was good but coming home to an empty house was lousy. Wish my hubby didn't work either, lol. Then again, we wouldn't have a house to come home to.
Tomorrow I am walking shelter dogs from 8 am to 10 am and Wed I have my NAMI group. Thursday I'll be out at the rescue mission. Lots of volunteer stuff to do at home in the meantime but being out is better for me.
Let me know what you are up to this week!

Dobie, sounds like an awesome plan.
I leave for a relaxing vacation tomorrow, away from the hustle and bustle....six days of relaxation. It is much needed. I'm not planning much more than that! Of course the last few days of work before vacation are a pain....eek! Off I go to start my day!
Don't have sex with anybody- hormones are a-raging.
Don't self harm- been having the urge to.
Continue planning the wedding for my event planning class.
Oh, and eat.
