I haven't been on here in a long time but am going through a really hard time right now. I am feeling very alone and outcast by my family. I don't think my husband can tell what's truly happening and isn't willing to talk. I have as huge urge to go in my living room and grab whatever pills I can and never wake up. I want to cut myself like I haven't in so long. I was doing so well but now I just feel like a complete failure and don't feel worthy of this life... T.T

Friday Night ~ I need to come here more often, but I find the background colors so dark, drag and dreary. As an artist of sorts I find colors impact on me a lot.

Here is another Facebook Group that is relatively Closed that some may want to check out. It is a new one >

I have been isolating myself a lot, trying to focus on typing up a book, but often get scattered, then before too long the day is over and I must look to a new one for a fresh start!

Just sharing, because sharing is caring.

Trina, I know that there are days where I wish I were on meds just so that I wouldn't feel the constant need to cry everyday over stupid stuff. Simple things like pictures of my beautiful girls growing up way too quickly or my husband not talking to me for stupid reasons like he's upset at something from work or stuff like that but then I have to remember what I felt like when I was on the meds and the lithium stopped working and made everything have a funky taste and smell and I wanted to starve myself because I couldn't stand the way anything tasted at that point until it tried to take my favorite smell in the world away. I won't allow that to happen. lol. Then when I was on the second medicine and I was itchy all over so bad I was shaking because of an allergic reaction to it. I'd rather have all the emotions of the world come at me all at once than have to go through that again. Thanks for listening to another long rant of mine haha

blessed be

Stephanie, I'm sorry to hear that no one is willing to help you. I know how frustrating that can and does feel. I felt that way for 21 years now. I was diagnosed a year ago with Bipolar 1 and went on Lithium and it stopped working and had to force my doctor to change the medicine for me and the next medicine I was allergic to. The doctor was really rude about it. I felt completely drained because I felt like not only my doctor but family was trying to keep me sick instead of helping me. Right now I am not on any medication and have not been for almost a year now. I have been bipolar since eight years old and only found out last year. Living with it for 20 years before being diagnosed has given me great insight into how to cope with covering it up without meds. I take time each day to read, take a bubble bath, write poetry, or be by myself without distraction or negativity. I have found that small amount of time each day really helps me to stay calm. I go to cosmetology school and was talking to one of the educators about my resume and the interview process and asked her how I can "mask" my bipolar during the interview process to where I can get the job I want and then later if it comes up let the employer know. She told me she would have never known had I not told her. The way that I look at it is that I was given a gift within a curse and I just have to roll with the punches. I have done a lot of growing within the last couple months and a lot has to do with the fact that I found my career, I have become more confident in being a mom, and being able to come on here to vent or to help people. I hope that this very long rant is helpful to you and I hope that you are able to find the help you deserve. If you ever need to vent I'm a great listener and will do my best to help.

Take care and blessed be

Justi
