Hello All,

Today I am sitting here on the couch a shell of a man. We are in the process of selling all our assets to try and keep a roof over our heads after a long and drawn out battle to get my bipolar under control. Up to this point, I have been in crisis since the start of the year. I have been trialing new medications since the start of 2013, and am still not stable.

Unfortunately I have not been able to work or keep a stable job during this time. We have tried everything in our power to get me stable, changing therapists, changing Pdocs, changing Psychs, probably a dozen medications. This week it all came crashing down. Nearly all our worldly possessions are now listed online for sale in an effort to reduce our debts to a point where we can live without me working. I have been working on and off for the last 10 years, struggling with our own building business, and a lot of my identity is tied up in my work, and the possessions we are now selling. As such I am feeling totally lost, wondering what the future holds and wondering who I am and where I am going...

So my question is, if this is rock bottom, and not working is part of the healing process, what have you found to help you rebuild your life and what would you recommend?
