I think everyone does have times like this but bipolar sure makes the problem worse. I dont even work and my house is a disaster. I dont manage to get my kids to do their homework or sign forms for school. Pretty pathetic. And I have been up for a couple months but instead of cleaning up the mess after depression I just made things worse. Buying more junk and throwing(literally) stuff all over the place. I just moved from one thing to the next way too fast to worry about cleaning up my mess. No concentration to focus on doing anything I was supposed to. My husband even cleaned up(plus working and taking care of the kids) while I was IP for 2 weeks and things are so much worse again since I got home a week ago. It doesnt seem right or make sense. I felt like I cleaned the kitchen all day but I must not have because its still very dirty! Not sure what I was actually doing but I'm not cleaning enough to keep up even when I'm trying. So you arent alone and you don't suck it's just really hard
