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.
Recently lost who I thought was my soulmate. He accepted me the way I was and I can be difficult. When were married I did not know I was bipolar. Diagnosed with depression and anxiety after our daughter was born.
Now that I am alone again, I wonder if anyone decent and strong would want to be with someone who is bipolar, has two children who have differnt fathers and herpes and a lot of skeletons in the closet that would not be there if I were not bipolar or had not gone undiagnosed for so many years. Alcohol did not help either.
I am not ready for anyone new yet. I miss my husband toooo much. It will take time. I do not want to be alone forever though and do not want to get hurt anymore.

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...
But I have had bad relationships in the past which actually helps right now, because I have come to terms with realizing it is much better to be alone than in an abusive relationship.
But that doesn't make being alone easier.
But you know, the grass is always greener...take some time to see and enjoy some of the benefits of being single again.
No, I didn't have a child then, granted. But, I really believe that if we work on ourselves, the right person will come along.
Definitely grieve - it does take time to get over someone we love. I hear your hurt and lonliness. Hope you can find friendships here in the meantime. :)
