My anxiety level about money is making my Bipolar worse. Yes it's true. It's one of the topics on here that I read.

With Bipolar I tend to spend more money than I would like too. I have a budget and I'm doing better at it. I pay all my bills on time but I have goals I can't reach because of my spending.

It's so frustrating. At the moment I'm in high anxiety mode and feel stuck, frozen, impatient and mad at myself.

I have to help a friend move today so I need to get off of this computer but I need to vent. I'm trying to learn and accept my limitations but it's so hard sometimes.

I need to be more self aware of my money. Remind myself how my spending was way out of control a couple of years ago and I have made progress. I'm on disability and can only work part time. If I work more hours I can meet my goals quicker but I can't. I have tried. I just want to be normal.

I've tried working more hours and then I can get in fight or flight mode and then I leave work early!!!!!!

Sincerely,

Lynn
