I'm sorry you're struggling so on Christmas Eve. It is so common for us to "convince ourselves" that we don't have bipolar and don't need meds. I hope you can listen to the part of yourself that knows this is wrong, It sounds to me like you really do need to go IP. Mothers are notorious for laying on guilt trips, but in this case I think your mom is just flat wrong. Please don't worry that your family will make fun of you. I'm glad you have the support of your husband and that's what you should rely on. Does he think you should go IP? You say because of the BPD you need their approval to go IP. Is that just how you feel? You're a married adult, and you don't understand how you would need your family's permission. You have to do what is best for you and I think you know what that is, or you wouldn't have posted, and you especially wouldn't have given the post the title you did. I'm sending you good energy and hoping you can get to a better place soon.
