I mean what actaully causes bipolar people to get to the point of that. Other than suicide or threat of. I dont know if this is a dumb question or not beucase I know what I felt when I felt I have wanted to go away for some seious help, so I am wondering if what I experienced in the past is the same?
I was also going over my past with my hubby and remembered the last dr I went to put me on seraquel and zoloft but of course I stopped taking it and stopped seeing her. She never said anything, It was in the middle of one my these "breakdown" periods I am talking about
Wondering if she every thought anything?
I never asked just took it. The only thing I remember her saying that I was mutilating my self
hmmmm

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...
It was the best place for me.
Puzzles..in rhymes and songs scrawled.
Bathroom door open.Lying in a bath full of lukewarm water.music blaring.
That's the first bit...
More than life itself.
Which probably isn't saying much.
I held an impromptu seminar/conference in a Hotel lobby in London.I had a bagful of stuff.
I think it was on The Abuse Of Words.Saying abuse starts with words etc.
I looked around and the tables around me had lots of my crap stuff on.I'd 'displayed' it all.labels etc.I remember a toy attached to a coat hanger by a noose ! Haha.
The hotel manager came and to his credit, didn't call the police.Just decided to kick me out.
I then walked barefoot to the next victims.haha. I was in a Summer Vest and Shorts too !
I wasn't around long enough for them to make a diagnosis.
Went in on Friday and out on Sunday.
I remember crying endlessly and driving everyone in the ward insane.
Left the hospital against doc orders [they always want you to stay the full 30 days no matter how you feel and they don't attend to your needs very quickly because they want to drain your testicles dry whether you have them or not.]
*I went because I was emotionally falling apart. It was during my finals in college and I had way to much stress.

2nd hospitalizatoin:
Diagnosed
Medicated
Stabilized
I've dealt with extreme rapid cycling while inpatient too.
I think if I was to be hospitalized again the catalist would be a panic attack or the fear of one... like I was nearly hospitalized a month ago because I had ideations of sitting in the middle of the intersection and just waiting for someone to come along and pick me up and help me... I couldnt handle everything in my brain any more. But the place I would have gone wouldnt have been much help and I saw my pdoc the next day and we adjusted my meds which is what the hospital would have done anyhow...
Ultimately it is usually linked to me being in a mixed state and having a trigger that sets off a panic attack
