hamster, while I'm not bipolar I do have problems with being impulsive too.
I just plain don't think of the outcome of my actions

And, I don't learn from previous mistakes.
Can I suggest maybe when you feel the need to act impulsively that you come on here first?
Post what you are feeling before doing it. Maybe it will be just enough time (while you are waiting for others on here to respond) to slow down the 'action' of doing something that might not be in your best interests. <3
