You know, Emgreen, that the "we" is anything which is strong enough for you to draw on it, without depleting it. It might be your AA group. It could be some of us! *<I smile confidently. >*
You say, "I'm tired of being bipolar & there's no cure." I hear that. There is management, though, and my pdoc is suddenly not doing his job helping me manage it. There are some many drugs out there and we've tried so few.
I think we bipolars are hard to find answers for (because of the nature of the disease, not because of the types of patients).
I hope you and me and arachnophobia.kid can each find a way to stay sober, find support, and have a few moments each day of real enjoyment of life.
