Actually starting to come out of the funk I've been having for, crap I don't know how long. It comes and goes so often. I think listening to all the upbeat music, and going to a women's group last night, helped a bit. Just hope we can make the DBSA group next week.

Had a stressful day, and it's only halfway over.
Started with signing up for spring classes. Took 2 hours to see an advisor, I have sooo many classes to take between now and the Fall semester next year. I thought I would get the summer off, but alas, no. This is what happens when you are not on the ball with advising and planning your academic career. Le Sigh To add to that, my family is gathering this weekend for a sister's graduation. Tonight, they want to go out to dinner. I just have to get through Saturday. Family stresses me out. Another Le sigh. |

Feeling really depressed and out of it. I slept almost 10 hours but feel like I slept half of that. Right when I was about to finish a project too. Ugh

Not well. Straw upon straw. Pressure from all sides -- and most hopelessness-inspiringly from impersonal "entities" demanding I give what I simply do not have. Everything closing in. Add two major slams over last 2 days, as if there was not too much already.
Spent yesterday at work barely holding it together (crying doesn't count) and wondering if I should just go to the hospital. Not going to. If agitation kicked in, that would tip the balance. As it is, I just don't give a gdf. Not even enough to bother being a danger. Really threw some sunshine down there. Sorry. |

Had side effects from meds all day today, pumped myself with tylenol to try to beat the headache. I think I'm going to make a post asking if others have that weird med headache where you're tired but awake and your body is torn between.
Alas, i feel better now. After the day's activities are over, of course ![]() |

I'm feeling pretty anxious this morning. It's the first time in a few days so it is unwelcome as usual. I have no plans for the day so I can live with it.

Hello everyone, I'm new to this forum. I was diagnosed with Bipolar 1 on 11/24. I spent 8 days in the hospital after what I now know was a manic episode. It was a terrifying experience. I am still trying to wrap my mind around my diagnosis and all that comes with it. Lithium has been a blessing but I do think it is making me tired and I am tired to begin with due to my thyroid level being too high.
I'm looking forward to getting to know everyone. ![]() |

Feeling lonely this week. My husband started a new job and night school so we don't see each other as often as we used to. Trying to adjust to the change and find activities to fill my time at home.

I called in today. I woke up shaking from a panic attack. I have had these in the past and now it's back to haunt me again. It's only when I have to work. Things are still going downhill and I'm missing a lot of work. My pdoc upped my Seroquel a week and a half ago for the depression, and I just can't kick this depression. I have to work twelve hours tomorrow and I'm hoping it's not a repeat of today. I don't know what to do, it's just getting worse.

My day was pretty decent. Took my 9yr old to Girl Scout. We went to hang out with grandma. My dad took my 9yr old to our local parade. While she was gone I started on laundry. I didn't clean the house top to bottom. I did vacuum tho. I started knitting my dad a scarf

I hate being bipolar. HATE IT. I'm tired of feeling like a yo-yo. I'm tired of feeling like I'm bursting at the seams from stuffing all the emotions down so I don't ruin relationships. [trigger] I'm tired of feeling like cutting. Frustrated I can't without scars [trigger] I'm just tired of it all today.

With the Saphris controlling mania it looks like all I have to look forward to is the depression. It seems like the only consistent feeling that I have. Fleeting feelings of being okay. Bipolar sucks.

I'm on my way out of depression today. I could barely sleep last night as my wheels wouldn't stop turning. Feeling really good actually. Probably hypo, but I will take that over crawling into a hole any day. Getting ready to watch the Packers play. Looking forward to what tomorrow brings. It is Monday after all.
