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've spent so long being unhappy that being happy or having fun feels alien to me and makes me feel guilty afterward.
I've developed a major fear of rejection.
I'm not doing well. My anxiety is killing me because I don't know what to do. Should I go on about my life, and just say "I don't care"? Should I attempt again and again to be social again? (Even though there is so much rejection I can hardly bear it)
I don't know what to do. I feel so lost.
On one hand I want to be a bitch and say I don't care and mean it.
On the other hand I want to be who I once was. (Is that attainable?)
Who am I?

So I have been having a lot of health issues and my cardiologist felt that he didn't get clear enough images of my heart in the office, so he wanted to do a Trans-esophegeal heart Echocardiocgram in the hospital. I was pretty nervous about it, because I've never had any procedures related to my heart or any other major organs. I've had knee surgery and thyroid surgery, but to me anything to do...
Everybody has stuff that puts them on emotional overload, and it's Natural to want to avoid those things, Hanna. Honest. Everybody feels that way.
When you go back "out there" in life, it's going to feel Damned Uncomfortable at first. Like everything being quiet inside you for awhile, then it gets Noisy...you know?
But I'm a firm believer in the "it's worth it" thing, simply because I used to be a Saleman. And I know if you knock on Enough doors, or make Enough calls, "somebody" will want to buy what I'm selling.
And you have a Lot, Hanna. I can see that. :) Be brave. :)
