It scarey thought... but it's much needed at times. shake off all the parts that are bringing your life down until you have the basics , your wife, your job and sleeping and eating enough .. Focus just on those 4 things, rein your thoughts in when they race to "fix you" The more overstressed you will feel.

Please learn to use Mindfulness... It's a massively useful tool . Live in the moment, don't worry about an hour from now or a day, or "will I ever feel better" just moment by moment. That is "floating"

Bipolar always always cycles
