Slipping into Depression AGAIN!

This is the worst part about being bipolar in how extreme your moods not only switch but how the darkness of it even gets darker... Hope I can pull myself out of this one QUICK... (I'm in the middle of a med change)

I'm trying to open up more but it seems the more I open up the more I wish I never said anything... Does anyone else have this problem? I HATE talking about myself to friends or family! I feel like a burden OR if they don't react they way I want/hope they would I sink deeper in the depression... I feel like no one understands me or no one cares.

Re: Slipping into Depression AGAIN!

i know exactly where your comming from. i'm going through the same thing right now. as a matter of fact yesterday i posted about how miserable i was and still am. you are not alone, things do and will get better. if it gets too bad call your pdoc and make him/her aware of how your feeling. please hang in there and this is from someone who feels like noone cares, i often think that everyone is against me. but i'm told that this isnt' real, its only because we're sick and don't see how much we're loved.

best of luck to you and keep us posted

till next time

harmony

Re: Slipping into Depression AGAIN!

Sending some (((((HUGS))))) Dee-nah!! Just remember that this feeling won't last forever and hopefully the new meds will kick in and bring things to a better balance for you.

Perhaps you should look into a support group....nobody truly will understand what you are going through other than somebody who is walking in the same pair of shoes. Heck, as much as I would like to, sometimes I honestly don't understand my daughter and I would really like to. Sometimes family members just don't know what to say....and if you are anything like my daughter no matter what we say sometimes we get yelled at and after a while just listen. It doesn't mean that we don't care but sometimes we just don't know which words will make you feel better.

So perhaps joining a Bipolar support group will be just the thing for you. See if you can get in touch with **** and they will direct you to one in your area.

Hoping that you come out of this soon ~ Goody

Re: Slipping into Depression AGAIN!

Hey Goody..

I decided that this is my "support group", we do have one around here but it's not good it's just a bunch of people with either bipolar or depression issues with no professional leading the group... Don't know if you ever seen a group of bipolar people with no leader = )

When 10 different things come at me at once I can't deal... I have to learn how to handle situations like this.. It's seems I will be in the middle of dealing with one when the other comes into play and rapid cycling begins... AGAIN, i'm going through a med change so I'm also trying to figure out how my brain is handling this not to mention my body.. I've been side effect sick now for almost 2 weeks, pdoc knows about this...

Hopefully today will be good and I will be able to focus...

Re: Slipping into Depression AGAIN!

I know you have a lot of things going on in your life right now which would be hard for anyone to cope with. The only advice I can give you is to try to deal with one thing at a time and recognize that you have to take care of yourself first.

I am continually impressed by how much insight you have into your moods and triggers. Hopefully, with your help, your pdoc will be able to get you on the right medication combination soon.

Keep posting and know that we are thinking of you. Hopefully today will be a better day for you.

Lor
