We've all been told to basically SNAP OUT OF IT. I can almost see it coming!
But have you ever dropped a common statement and all hell breaks loose because you're a bipolar?
In my mom's kitchen, complaining about my job, I casually say....oh hell, I want to kill myself over this client. BOOM! Mom hits the chair, gets all moopsey and wants to discuss why I want to die. I don't mom, it's just a saying..
Does this happen to you? I get it a lot, maybe I say I want to die too often?

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...
MORBID humour.
Thanks.
Yeah, never had that before to such a degree.Yet still not mean it.
You KNOW you said it but hadn't realised how THEY respond ?
This is such a subtle and brilliant topic too.
Peace
When I get down... I talk about suicide... and all hell breaks loose. I'm just "talking" about it!
I'm offended that your responses are ignored, or out of context! I admire that you have the guts to discuss that your family goes into overdrive... because of your simple comment.
