I have this problem too, and I've been bp for the last 17 years, only just started taking meds. I've ended up with enough "hobbies" for twenty people. I think that when I'm "well" I can turn my hand to anything and be great at it, but having the wherewithall to see things through is impossible. I think I'd rather be good at one or two things and be able to finish them.

The one thing that sticks with me sometimes even into depression is writing, and yet the internet is littered with unfinished stories of mine. :/

Seconded. If my mother "popped off" I could cope with the grief. I could arrange a funeral. In a simpler world, I could physically dig a grave and bury her. I'm a strong person. But deal with what the world will throw my way? *laughs* Yeah, right...
