Hi all. I'm a 34 year old female. Had bipolar since 12 years and have been able to live somewhat of a successful life until 2 years ago. I had a bad breakup and also physical injury due to which I had to leave my job. I took a year off and spent recovering with my parents and since Sept. of 2014 I've been looking for a job first in New York and since 9 mo I've been in Milan, Italy. I still don't have a job. I've been through different phases here, first two months of going out every night and socialising. Since then I've been more worrisome about finances and spending. I've met many Italian guys too many and they are the worst. People I feel in Milano which I love as a city are superficiale and I've been unable to make any real friends except one. I'm on medication but in general depression. It's gotten worse now. I can't keep stable relationships or even a stable mind. One day I'm happy and at night I'm crying. I feel very lonely here. My mind has been a rollarcoaster. I message people something when I'm upset and then the next morning I say something different totally opposite. I've burnt bridges like this. De-friending on facebook, deleting numbers and then trying to patch things up has become a repeated activity. People just don't understand. Most recently I was a little more than friends with a guy and then I sent one or two dramatic texts, no reply, it annoyed me even more, no reply. I even apologized saying I have mood swings and still no reply. It makes me feel sad as I used to talk to this guy everyday and he used to respond to my messages right away. I'm getting tired of a solitary life...some guidance would be great.

I wish I had advice but I'm the same way. Except I never have the friend in the first place, I just never let myself get close to anyone. But I wanted to let you know you're not alone.

You're definitely not alone when dealing with this. I'm sure many of us can relate to this. Unfortunately I don't really have any advice since I'm in the fight with you. But I just wanted to let you know you're among many who care and support you.

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
