It's just impossible to get an accurate impression of someone's real personality at a time like that.

I’ve recently been manic and am now in a depressive episode. I’m feeling very sensitive. For the past two months, I’ve cried during church. It’s embarrassing to lose control like that. It feels like every sermon hits home for me, triggering thoughts and pain related to my son’s estrangement. Today’s message was asking the question, “Does God give us too much to handle?” For me, the answer is a resounding YES! I’m not coping at all in spite of meds, regular pdoc appointments, and weekly therapy. I’m drowning.
