This is the place to talk about your experience with bipolar disorder, learn from others' experiences, and find support.
On thrusday when i went to see my therapist the subject of working came up. I have been really down since my break up with my bf and needless to say the job talk sent me over the edge. I started having suicidal thoughts because i was so down about everything. I felt on friday like i was going to have a break down and just wanted to scream. I decided to hold off telling my paretns because i wanted to see if going to class would help. It did for a little while and I did talk to my paretns about the job stuff and i figured I would be fine. I still had the thoughts. This morning I could not stand it anymore I had to say somethnig to my parents. SO I went to the pdoc and I said I thought it was the meds but i ended up breaking down and telling him what really happend. We talked about it and came to the conclusion to not talk about job stuff for a while, no med changes and I go back to the pdoc next thrusday. I am feeling much better now that I got that wieght lifted off my shoulders. I am blessed in so many ways. God answerd my prayers and now i am safe.
What I mean is when something is just to much in therapy can you address it right then with your t so it does not follow you out the door?
I'm very lucky I can reach out to my T 24/7 then she gets back to me when she can. I wouldn't stay with one any more that I was not able to openly tell if they were upsetting me or if I couldn't contact them reasonably outside of out 50 min. like I said though I am spoiled by my team.
