Welcome and thank you for your post explaining your current circumstances.

You've come to the right place for support. We know only too well the grips of depression and mania that can interfere with our day to day ability to function.

Your situation is complex due to the needs within your immediate family. Is anyone seeing a therapist to help with this?

Best wishes and I hope that with the right cocktail of meds you are able to stabilise yourself so that you are able to function optimally.
