Fall for me is also when I’m much more likely to wind up IP, then Spring too, those are very common times of the year for people with Bipolar to have horrible episodes. I do hope you are able to skip a IP stay this year  |
Thanks for both of these. *BIG HUGS*
This weather reminds me so much this year of being 10-13 AND of going IP. I don't have a T but we could arrange to get me one- I'll have to ask my case manager. I feel like I dont even remember 99% of my childhood re: alcoholic dad. It scares me that there may be bad things Im not letting come to the forefront. I tried seeing someone specifically for ACOA (AdultChild Of an Alcoholic). in 1999 but that fizzled out. My brain still wants to think that I had a great childhood. Some of it was but there is stuff lurking and hiding that Im afraid of.
