Oh! But maybe if I look in the mirror every day and say over and over how I'm successful and talented ...

But that's not true, lying to myself isn't going to make anything better.

So what about only thinking positive thoughts? That should ... but

My brain doesn't function properly due to serotonin and norepinephrine being reabsorbed before it can properly transmit signals. So I'm trying to drag race without tires.





What I'm saying is that maybe there are small things we can work on. But most of the advice I've ever gotten hasn't worked or is downright counterproductive. Not everything works the same for everyone so we need to try multiple things to see what works for us. For example, my wife had a panic attack because I couldn't get her to take her anti-anxiety pill. It was as simple as taking her medicine.

Good luck, maybe you find that thing you need!

I knew I'd see you here! hi! I know this idea won't be the solution to end bipolar, I'm just trying to find ways to Not be completely MISERABLE every single minute of every day! I'm talking about ways to possibly take an occasional Break from all the suffering. Maybe make the bad times a little more manageable by tossing some good in from time to time.
