[mixedupmom2]

Just introducing myself. I have been under treatment for bipolor disorder since I was 23. I am 31 I had symptoms at a young age though. I am a single mom of 2 daughters. And at this moment I am in a crisis state. I am not thinking clearly. Not sleeping, eating. My mind is racing. I am still taking my meds as prescribed but I am definitely on a downward spiral. I have alot of stresses in my life and I am not able to deal well with them all at once. I feel like I am hanging by a thread. I was hoping that I could join a few support groups online so I would have someone to talk to .

welcome misedupmom2! i think you'll find a lot of support here. there are many of us who can relate in some way to your situation. i too, am a single, divorced mom of two boys. i've been treated off and on since 18 for ed and depression. i'm 32. only recently, since i've been on my own, have i been able to make progress in figuring out what's been going on. more various diagnosis, etc. i will write more later. it's almost 90 degrees out and the boys are begging me to take them to the beach. i will say a prayer for you (hope this is acceptable to say--if not someone let me know) and be thinking of you today. talk again soon.
