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.
In other words, manic triggers....I've experienced several today and thought it might be fun to compare notes...maybe even help each other a bit? I get to start.
1. Computer support people! They are all idiots and my dog knows more about my computers than they do!
2. Adult kids that don't know zilch about dealing with normal life and want you to do everything for them. #2 adult kid had his car broken into this morning and I had to figure out what to do, still doing, btw. #1 adult kid left his car with a shady repair service and then left the state leaving me to deal with shady person that cannot speak english....oops...
That's #3...If you live in the US you NEED to learn to speak english so that other US people can actually understand you.
I have lots more, but leaving room for everyone to add their own.

I have been here before, a long long time ago and now I am back.Forgive me for not just saying what I want to say,even under a triple dose of antidepressants it is still raw and seeping and I am hesitant at revealing it as at least under the bandages around my heart I don,t have to look at how raw and wounded.My child was cleaved from my heart by his own actions. my child of ten,turning eleven...

theatre and I are there already. I'm having a very berry tea with crackers, cheese and cherry tomatoes and she's having a joint with some beer and we're both on really comfy recliners on thick pile carpet. we need some help with the decor if anyone is around??
Also, my Bipolar soulmate, when he goes bonkers and treats me like shit!!! He used to do it every 13 days or so, which wasn't too bad. I knew it was coming and his black period only lasted about 18 hours.
But now he's passed into a much worse phase. He's much more abusive, his timetable is unpredictable, and the spells last much longer. It's taking a toll on me and on him as well, I think. He doesn't.
It's very sad, because I'm beginning to think that our respective conditions make us bad for each other. I wish I could do something to make it better, for both of us!!
How about people that don't think?! Oh wait, that was me before I was dx'd and took meds...WELL, they still piss me off! :)
MT, behave or at least be a bit politically correct. However the shady gas station guy has a very thick middle-eastern accent! My bad for encouraging MT. I'm sure it's just a coincidence!
