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.
Everyone has an opinion, everyone has been hurt by someone in life on DS in this community.
We are all bipolar we have a mood disorder, sometimes we are happy sometimes we are sad, but there is no excuse to run someone into the ground by bashing them or victimising them with what may be half truth lies and innuedos. If you have a problem with someone why not take it up with them personally. Why not email Doug and have DS deal with it privately.
This site is suppose to be supportive and loving environment. The bashings, rubbishing of others and their beliefs does nothing to support or encourage others to contribute.
I am only posting this as I know some people are sick of this place because of the bad behaviour. Common on everyone, we may have mood disorders but it doesn't excuse plain rudeness or character assasinations.
This post is not about anyone in particular its just an observation from the sidelines. I know the majority don't do this but I just felt compelled to post this. q

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
Let it die & lets all move forward/backwards/sideways/downwards etc etc
Take care

Common crew me included in this one. "PULL YER SOX UP MATE"
LOL
I agree with you - and have seen similar bashings come up, go out, get posts like this to help straighten us out, etc.
I wish we could all "play nice" - but it is the nature of the bipolar beast to act out a soap opera, times 10.
I appreciate your feelings on this and your willingness to comment on post. You are a "fixer" - god bless those who are.
Again, in an ideal world, your suggestions would be actually happening - we'd be hurt, then email Doug and go play with our other friends and be done with it.
But we're bipolar, and we're at different emotional levels (none of us over about 6, ha ha), so history repeats itself. (sigh)
*Hugs*
she's australian? I thought she was a kiwi...lol
Nice post sweetie...I agree with ya
Simply because certain people tend to be clever and abuse people in a quiet way so as to hide their tracks and not leave the proof one needs to take it to Doug.
Also, some people, not all, but some, badger people by insulting or otherwise abusing them through this medium in such a way that other people do not see the tracks. Some people need to be dealt with in the public eye so the victims have a common thread. They can then heal by consoling eachother and getting it out in the open. For after all it out in the open that the abuse happens but goes unattended as it's disuised by so much BS.
Hope this makes sense to you... it does to lots of us.
