Somehow my talking back isn't very effective. I may need to work on this with my therapist.We've been working on "everything in the entire world that goes wrong is not Jen's fault" so this kind of is a natural stretch from that. I do think you are right and the depression starts this but I think the mania takes over it to make things miserable. With depression I would't have to hear it in my thoughts over and over like I do with mania or if I did it wouldn't be at the speed of light. I think the speed is why it starts to be hard to not believe it all.

seriously...im sorry you had a "friend" like that ...what she did was so wrong especially as a "christian'
realize your brain is lying to you and try not to get caught up in the negative looping thoughts. yes we all make mistakes and bipolar can lead to a lot of them but then....what is your friends excuse?
I can also get caught up in negative guilty obsessive thoughts but this is usually when im in some type of depressive state. I have learned to talk back to my brain and I only learned that from here! but it helps to have insight
anyway im rambling...know you are not alone and I hope you feel better soon
