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.
Trying to pay attention when I laugh or smile during the day because my internal dialogue says I never feel joy. The last time I remember feeling joy is when I was able to help one of my clients through a very difficult day. I was with him when he passed and he had wanted to go for such a long time. I felt joy when my dad passed because he suffered from many maladies including depression and I knew he was dismally and amazingly at peace. So for today, with my grandchildren starting their first of seven days in our care, my focus is going to be on catching myself feeling positive or joyful. Please wish me well. ❤️

Today mom and I are taking Moo and Copper to the vet for vaccines. I'm watching a movie having coffee while copper snoozes in between my knees. What does Thursday look like for you?

Does anyone here have a comfort item you carry with you when you go out? For example this is my doll, Annie, and I've recently been bringing her with me when I run errrands flor have an appointment. Holding her comforts me. I've bought her clothes, crocheted for her, I recently bought a personalized blanket with her name on it. Just wondering if anyone else has a comfort item.

I find that I never feel as bad when I'm feeling grateful.... Big hug.....xo
