Hello and struggling

Hi, I haven't been on this page in a long time. I am struggling at this time.

I was diagnosed with bipolar in July of 2013. Since then I have had a lot of ups and downs.

I am on my third pdoc. The first two stopped taking my insurance. I am also without a therapist. I have no friends and the only person I can talk to is my husband and I think he is tired of being the only one I talk to.

My mess were just changed again so my emotions are going thru the ringer. My meds never seem to last very long.

Everything is bothering me.

Mom last week asked me to invite my sisters boys to a birthday at my house for my brothers daughter. I was on my way to pick up the boys when my mom called and told me to turn around. Apparently my brother didn't know my nephews were coming and he was livid. I came home to a...
