I have bipolar and my moods have been stable, no depression or mania. Maybe just a little depression when it's cloudy out. I just can't function. Can't wake up and make the bed, dress, do laundry, take a shower. My mom wants me to go to some treatment facility in Georgia for people with bipolar. I just feel like nothing can help me. I don't know why I am this way, why I can't seem to do anything that I need to do. Has anybody else had this problem and is it related to bipolar?

Yes I'm bipolar too and am currently in that state plus hating the world and everything in it. I don't think we have treatment facilities you can stay at strictly for bipolar up here in ontario canada

Not being able to function in that way sounds like depression to me. How is your mood? If it that bad maybe going into a treatment facility would help. Help can be found, don't give up hope. I too have the problem of not being able to do the things I need/want to when I am unwell. It is really tough. Hopefully the other members here will have some more helpful advice for you. Hang in there.

I have the same problem at times. Getting out of bed to go to the bathroom is an ordeal when I feel like that. Really inconvenient, get nothing done for weeks at a time! I cant work anymore because of that. Its depression hitting me hard at times. The physical symptoms of depression are debilitating.
I think you should go to the treatment facitity. It might help, and if not, well, at least you tried to see.
