Lol! Yay!!!! I am better today lol!

I texted the main woman from my Depression Group I go to. I asked her about coming off meds and if she has ever done it etc. She told me she has but it was disasterous so she went back on meds and they told her she would be on meds for the rest of her life. She asked me if I came off mines on my own which I did. She said I never mentioned anything at Group on Monday. I said I know it's sometimes hard..... They all have depression and I have bipolar. Sometimes they don't understand my mania and how bad it can get. Plus I prefer to talk 1:1 rather in group with everyone. I was hoping to chat to her on my own but the others were all there and I felt a bit embarrassed. We use to have our Group meetings every week in a building funded by the council. But the council cut the amount of money for support groups and the depression group was cut. So we decided to meet every 2 weeks off of our own back's and we meet in a lovely wee bar in town. But sometimes I miss the room we would have in the building as it was private!
