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.
Curious to know since most of us have held many jobs over time and not kept them why did you blow through the jobs? Did you quit, get fired or other? I have had numerous jobs, with all my many degrees, most I only tolerated for a few months, the longest so far that I have lasted is 2 years. I usually get board in my manic state and move on. I am praying now that I am on meds I can stay and retire with the place I currently work at.

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...
#2 Was a temp job. 4 days
#3 Data entry my mind would race to much to sit at a computer desk and do 1 task over and over
#4 Customer Service for an inkcartridge store. It was not explained everything I would be doing and to what extent and the people there was assholes.
So maybe it's because I have not found the right job. My doctor things I need time to try and work on myself and I am trying to rush things, but I have bills that need paid. I might try disability because I have been hospitalized 3 times for bipolar skitso episodes.
then i was an advisor to undergrads for like a year.
was a teacher (english) while working on my master's, worked insane hours every week.
then fell the fuck apart. i've never been fired, always quit.
I am lucky I didn't get fired for fooling around when manic, he was my boss. I had to quit when it interfered with my marriage. Later he got fired, hmmmm. Sounds like very similar threads.
