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 know some studies have shown that some folks with bipolar have trouble reading faces.
But what about this--does anyone experience anything like this--- yesterday my husband told me about a conversation with a man whose wife is experiencing anxiety & other issues and she spends excessive hours on the internet everyday researching and the guys upset about all that time she spends. I saw my hubby morph a bit before my eyes--bigger, taller, darker and a bit angry -- then he was normal. I think it is in response to the topic because I do spend a lot of time on the computer or iPad, but I don't like TV and hubby does--he watches hours daily. So I use my iPad near him while he watches TV so at least we are together. I'd rather read or play puzzles on my device, or come here. Another incident--, hubby put fresh corn that he shucked in the fridge uncovered yesterday to cook today. When I went into the fridge a little while ago I saw it all withered from not being covered. When I looked again a few minutes ago, it was fine. What gives? Anyone else experience something like this?

I find myself going places in the car and not wanting to get out of the car. I come back home and I don't want to get out of the car. I think it's the only time I spend reflecting. Chronic tiredness from Long Covid plus the immunosupressing meds for my Crohn's is slowing me down but everything just seems a massive effort. I am dealing with the paperwork following my father's death but it's not...

Wow, it's the middle of the week already!Today is our 11 year anniversary, so we're going out to a nice dinner. I'm losing a lot of sleep these days, hence a wonky schedule and uncomfortable feelings. But I know it will pass, eventually.I hope all of you have a peaceful day, and may good things come your way!
Having faces morph is something else.
Then again there are people who have difficulties recognising faces of people they know.
I think it's good to research bipolar and talk to other beepers. You could be running amok in public and creative havoc. Lol.
Best of luck!
