That episode left me with a big loss of confidence in myself, and a loss of faith in other people. There have definitely been other times, too. Not as bad, but not great, either.
@BethRags I am so sorry that you and your daughter are estranged. I can only imagine the hurt. I, too, have lost many relationships when manic.
