Welcome, partybear. I'm sorry you're having such a rough time. Bipolar can do some wild things to us. I understand your concern about mentioning this to your doc but I think she would be understanding. You're manifesting a fairly common symptom of Bipolar I. That feeling of hopelessness is also the bipolar talking. I've been there, more than once, and since I was (correctly) diagnosed bipolar, I am determined never to go back there again. That takes work and education, but you know it's worth it. I hope that you can pull out this depression soon, with the help of your medical pros. I also hope that your visits here to PC are fruitful as you continue on your healing journey.
