Hi, my therapist suggested I get online support. So here I am. I very much relate to the manic side of bipolar than the depressed side. At least at this point in my life.
I am Mom to a 15 month old, this is my first child. I am finding myself so overwhelmed being her Mom, working full-time & having a pretty hard commute. I am triggered all day long & it is difficult for my husband. Our relationship has taken a serious hit since having a child. I am wearing so many hats I seemed to have lost the one I wear when I am a wife. I guess I set that aside first to be everything else & now I'm just a mess. I am the breadwinner & the finance department as well for our house. My husband pretty much just goes to work & does what I tell him. I have to control everything.
I also moved out of state after my father died 5 years ago & I regret my decision. I miss my family & friends & want to move home. But now I am stuck, with a child & a marriage in a home that is on the brink of foreclosure.

All this stress doesn't sit with a bipolar well. I wish little things didn't bother me so much, I wish I could slow down my mind. I am 31, I am quite tired of this.

I hope my introduction isn't too long! I hope to find others on here to relate to. Thanks for reading my post
