I struggle with maintaining friendships and I have faded away from people because I just got to caught up in my own mess and overwhelmed, so I’m sure in the past there have been people upset and questioning what happened between us and were they at fault.

I should have found the strength to be honest or stronger or just kinder, but we are all imperfect disasters in our own ways, mental illness or not.

Is there a way for you look at your Bipolar from a different angle, find a pin point of light somewhere? You just need a thimble full of hope to get you right side up.

It’s time to realize you need to be kinder to yourself, yes it’s hard to do, but we offer kindness to others so we can comfort ourselves
I haven't felt I deserved the kindness I do get from others and especially not from myself in a long time. I do things that make me feel good, and they do, if only briefly. I do help others as much as I can but that only leaves me being there for everyone else and almost never them for me if I need it.
Thanks for this!
