Thanks MusicLover82 and bizi. Yes, it may be the case that I was hoping for a deeper connection. My friend who also has bipolar is moving a few states away this week may have something to do with it. My adopted big brother is the only other person I share deep things with concerning bipolar and anxiety. I think he struggles with anxiety too and insomnia, but he won't acknowledge it as much. I sometimes worry about wearing him out and him getting sick of listening to me, even though we have really good conversations a few times a week.
