Your still gorunded in reality and that's good. Have you talked to your pdoc,therapist,spouse,family, friends? Make sure they know so if you get to a poit where you can't think rationally and want to end it they know whats up. Also, pdoc and therapist may be able to adjust meds and such so you don't get to that place.

I know how you feel, I have been there and it can be a very lonely feeling. It really is our perception and not always how it really is with our family. Even if we didnt have bipolar disorder, our moods can affect our family. We are the mom afterall. If we arent happy, nobody is happy. Ativan holds me over until I take my Seroquel some evenings too. Try to relax and get a good nights sleep. Things may feel better in the morning honey. Hugs

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
