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.
My stress is increasing and I can't reduce or eliminate what the stressor is right now. This is my main trigger. So, I need to cope. Any ideas? What have you done to help control it?

My 6mo twin DD's are EBF and just started rice cereal on the first. Everything has been going fine except this morning one of them had a diaper rash (lots of redness around her anus). I read this as one of the signs of an allergy. BUT I did just buy a different brand diaper yesterday (which they have used randomly before w/no issues). Do you think its the cereal or the diaper? Im ready to start...
Ok, you are exercising, I like the meditation idea. I'd try to limit stress in other areas of my life that I could control.
Continued stress and you are heaing for a fall.
Plan a holiday or break, just to defuse the stress for a few days at least.
Do what you really have to do.
The rest can wait.
Breath through my nose.
Imagine energy running through my body, entering from the left side when I inhale, and exiting from the right side when I exhale. By focusing on my breathing, it helps me take a break from what ever is triggering me.
