I sure hope you are feeling better. I understand how you feel. I get down in the dumps too and I feel as if nobody cares and that nobody understands. Sometimes I feel like this is never going to end and that it doesn't seem to get any better no matter how hard I try. Fortunately, I found this little community of bi-polar people here on psych central. I reached out last week and I got so much encouragement and understanding. I did what was suggested and called my pdoc and my therapist. Sometimes it's so very hard to ask for help. I'm so glad you're reaching out to us. I try to remember this silly little saying when I feel terrible - "this too shall pass" Don't give up! I was diagnosed last May and I've had a few ups and downs already. I'll keep you in my thoughts and prayers. TLynn1019
