Talk to your doctor or whatever other support you have access to, get as much help as you can:-) As Eva Longoria says 'because you're worth it'

My mother was complaining about feeling like she was catching a cold the last day, so she just chilled out for the day and had plenty of rest.

She caught her symptoms early and the cold didn't develop. My experience has been that episodes of horribleness that Bipolar induces can be treated in a similar manner and avoided by catching them out early (the sneaky little feckers)

I hope you're feeling better.
