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.
It's been one of those days. Racing thoughts, questioning the point of life (not suicidal, just curious), getting depressed about where my life is at, etc, etc. I think I'm making connections that probably aren't true (negative things).
I don't want to make this a long post. I really just want someone to talk to. I'm tired of feeling so alone.

As someone else has already said, it does pass. We just have to hold on until it does and do what we can to bring it along.
Different things can bring me out of my questioning the point of life and depression. Sometimes it is my kids. Sometimes it is my one friend. Sometimes I have what I call a survival day where I crawl in bed and watch comedies. They don't usually make me happy, but they are the best thing for me to watch when I'm down. Often times it is my husband or definately my faith that pulls me out of a funk. I'm so silly sometimes though, I have a strong faith but I forget to pray when needed. If you don't have a faith there is always the goal of generating positive vibes.
Good luck. I hope you feel better soon.
As for you, Hanna, I do hope you are coping a bit better today. Sometimes doing something new and out of the box can really through you off mood wise. Just know you are doing the right thing!
Keep up the good work, sorry I was not here yesterday to comment. My life is overwhelmed with busyness and tiredness, not a good combo!
