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.
like, i got pretty upset with someone, my ex, and i know i need to forget all of it, but because he hurt me so badly, i had those ideations. i would never do anything like that.
but just having the ideation made me feel like a terrible person.
i'm sorry i did. i don't feel that way now. but i need to be more careful with myself.
do you have anywhere you could stay, or a family member or friend to call?
i always felt this ideation but i never had the urge to act anything out like that whatsoever.
it's like i have tried to push images like that out of my mind before, because i experienced trauma as a result of abuse.
i know that. and i know i wouldn't act. but the fact that something like that has the ability to cross my mind, is scary enough for me.
i can't imagine actually feeling like doing something.
i can't be involved in anything like that again.
i need to be stable. and if there is ever anyone else, they need to be helping my situation, not confusing me at every turn.
i hope that you find better help, and that someone will take you seriously.
