Post depressive episode

I feel like **** all i want to do it sleep, beep sleeping since Saturday about 5pm I just got up tp grab a pepsi see if it would wake me up. I can't remember buying coke I hate coke. my head is so fuzzy inside I cannot think right. I was hoping getting some of this out will help I would take a walk but it's like 100 degrees here. hubby wants to go camping this next weekend I like the outdoors maybe it will help I hope I have energy by then. I am so exhausted I want to go back to bed feels like I am going in slooooooooowwwwwwwwww motion. I keep the phone in bed with me in case something bad happens and then a get scared I will have a nightmare and think it's real and call 911.

I know this sounds so trite, but: "hang in there!" I know some of how you feel, and I have to keep telling myself that it only "feels like" I'm going to be this tired, depressed, etc....forever. But it will get better!! Don't give up hope. That's when it is easiest to fall headlong into suicidal thoughts--so please don't go there, okay?!
I wish I had some fantastic words of wisdom, hope, and encouragement to share with you. All I can offer you is a listening ear, an understanding heart and prayer. God is always there for us when no one else is awake, or no one understands or we feel no one cares. He loves you and maybe he sent me to you tonite just to tell you that. I was just going to bed with a headache and thought I'd check one more time to see if anyone answered my post and somehow in my fuddled state of mind I read your post and found myself writing to you. Well, I am blithering to you at this point--you are not the only one feeling zonked out, only mine is partly from the migraine meds I took so I can sleep with less pain. But just remember: there are folks out there who do have a clue what you're going through. You are not alone! Take one day at a time and don't overwhelm yourself with "how am I gonna's".
I hoped something I said helped at least a tiny bit. This seems to be a great venting arena, so go for it and get it off your chest.
Best hopes and wishes for you Whiskey!!
From someone who was unexpectedly guided to read your post.

You'll come out of this one too, Whiskey - We always do, it's just so hard to even MOVE one foot in front of the other sometimes.
I remember feeling that the thoughts in my brain were like bubbles trying to escape through black sludge... By the time I finally got one out though, the need for that particular thought was gone.

Most people think we should just look up for the bright spot - Well, with biplar depression sometimes there ISN'T a bight spot in sight yet!
My favorite bit of "help" from those who don't understand? "Snap Out Of It"!!
Aaaaargh.

Type a few lines here everyday if you possibly can, o.k.?? Bipolar depression is so isolating, and we're here to keep that isolation from being overwhelming.

So, just remember that when you are laying down, bummed as hell, there is a little virtual 'hoosierbj', and a little virtual 'pbarranch' sitting around in your room just keeping you company thru this depression.
I'll check in everyday - would a virtual chocolate milkshake help?
