I live in a house with my best friend and my partner. I am depressed and bipolar and i am forced to pretend im ok everyday. If im not i am asked constantly whats wrong and you have to talk about it. It is all things that ive talked about before and they just dont understand that it doesnt go away. They keep telling me i have to get on with my life but its not that easy. Can anyone help?

    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...
