is there anything that hasnt changed because of bipolar ??? body,mind,relationships ??? or money ??? i do remember having bit more money than i have right now, or having more friends, or calling my mom and sis more frequently. i haven't met my sister in last 4 months and we live in same city just 10 miles apart. So again, I had an epiphany today. I'm going to be alone forever, aren't I ??? Quote:

Hi,
I LOVE the song, the words speak volumes. I'm moving to have family support. But in reality how much can they take? I guess only time will tell. How much can they relate. Zero. I can't talk to them abt anything BP related. They just wouldn't get, they look at me in horror and/or act nervous around me. I'm not interested in dating anymore. One guy I was talking to got ghost when I dropped the bomb on him. He act like I said aids. Are you and your mom still speaking? If your sister is good to you, think abt txt'n her (on a good day). You could just say "hi, thinkn abt u", that would break the ice. Thanks again for the lyrics, I'll be saving them.

Cocosurviving , I too am not interested in dating anymore. I have not told my family about bipolar. today is the actually first time i considered it.
it is not that my sis and me are not close or anything like that. i do remember when i was 8 years old i went to school trip but my sis couldn't, so i bought small purse for her. we were always close. but for last 2 years when i was depressed i could feel that she has some idea what i am going through. i couldn't hide it that well. i had lost,gained weight, and even those calls, mom and sis could listen that pain in my voice i think, so i reduced number of calls. more i talked more they could get idea of what i am feeling .....

I was so scared. I dodged calls from family b/c they would know something was wrong. After getting dx'd it was hard accepting the dx and being honest w/ others abt it. I told my mom and sisters (two of my sisters have it). I told a few close friends and all but one bailed on me. I started dealing w/ depression this past winter, and I just had a two med adjustments. I hope yours have been adjusted so you do not have to suffer again. Mania is scary to me but depression is HELL. I'm sorry you had to deal with the depression demon. I'm glad you and your sister were close and I'm sure you guys can pick back up. I hope you find the strength to tell at least your mom and sister. I'm sure both would love to hear from you. I attend a support group through NAMI (NAMI: National Alliance on Mental Illness - Mental Health Support, Education and Advocacy). It has really helped me. In my city they (NAMI) also offer, a support group for people that have, a family member w/ a mental illness.
