I actually left the house today. Because my roommate parked my truck illegally and we had to get it out of impound! For added fun the back window is mysteriously smashed out even though nothing was stolen or even touched. I suspect the tow company.
I'm in debt which is mostly related to my roommates owing me ridiculous amounts of money, I can't even clean my room and I miss being me! I started a new drug regiment but I'm feeling impatient. I want to be better now. I miss my hobbies and I miss feeling good about myself. At this point I even miss being manic. Needed to vent I guess... |

It will get better...sometimes it takes awhile to find the right meds. It took a long time for me, but now my mood swings have been quite manageable for over a year with only one deep depression which was helped by a minor med adjustment. This is the longest I've been out of the hospital in a long, long time. Just hang in there and keep putting one foot in front of the other...you'll get there!!

Things will get better, they always do.
Hopefully it won't take too long. |

It will get better.
To me, this is the saving grace of bipolar: what is happening now WILL pass. It's the nature of the illness. If one can stick it out and try to remember that it will pass... sometimes it's easier knowing that. It's almost a mantra to me in my darkest moments: "This will pass. It always does. It has to; it is the nature of the illness." Not that sometimes it doesn't feel like it will never pass...but it will. |

Agreed, and something I've only learned recently in my 20+ years battling bipolar depression. Keeping this in mind is what helps make it more tolerable, what makes it feel more bearable: this too will pass...

It does get much better with the right combo of drugs and lifestyle choices.

I have struggled with this illness for any years. It does always eventually swing up although, it seems like the lows are longer the older you get. my pdoc said that there really are bps who achieve full remission on meds. i sure hope that this happen s to me soon.
