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 have been reading some of the other threads and I guess I am not alone at giving away things. I have given away so many things. Even forcing them onto people. I even gave away my kids things without my kid saying they were mine.
I've given my wife's things away. I have given money away, jewerly, books, and anything else that is possible to give away.
I was always feeling good at these times, or a need to fix someone else or something. In fits of depression I have given away mass quantities of things. That was when I gave away all my albums and comic books, to my stupid brother.
Have some of you fellow DS members done that? Do you know anything about this?

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...
I'd like to get to a stage where I burn it all next time.
I was about to ask the same thing.
That is usually associated with the last moment before suicide?
Wait! Simon can you clarify your feelings during the act of giving the things away a little more for us?
I need to know.
Yep, they could use it, but not appreciate it.
I have given away furniture, cars, property, toys and knick-knacks, everything but the kitchen sink (which, if I were German, I probably would have done, too)
I bought 6 sets of Hi-Fi then delivered them to friends.They didn't even need them
I was reading in another thread about how others have given away books, just like me.
I was shocked to see that my obsession of giving things away is not unique.
dobiedots wants to know too.
I mean this sounds like something I am unfamiliar with but find fascinating...so I guess I just need to learn more about it?
Do you do it for the reason soulseeker does ..
Well done I say it keeps the house from getting to cluttered
and if somebody needs money why not.
I understnd that its not what you get in life, its what you give to life.
Know who wants my old undies.
