I was wondering if any one else might have had this problem. its just ruining my life. depression and mania obviously affect behavior. but in my case its SO BAD i don't know how to deal with it. i'm always angry and aggressive, hurting people without even noticing it. i instinctively avoid social interactions sometimes i'm cold, distant, detached. and other times my behavior just seems, well, extreme ( i mean that in the worst possible sense, constantly talking, laughing, smiling hysterically). whatever pops into my head comes out of my mouth. i've done so many stupid, embarrassing mistakes i'm usually terrified about what someone might think. and i end up avoiding a lot of people for the rest of my life. not to mention during times of depression, i can't carry on a conversation, i've been so slow and absent minded people have actually just walked away from me.
i've hurt and offended a lot of people by being the dysfunctional mess that i am.
i feel that i want to let them know it wasn't my intention but i don't know what to say then i don't say anything.
so, have you ever had to apologize for something like that? how can i even start?
