I finally was having a couple of good days and then got triggered again last night. I feel so alone and hopeless. I know I'm not supposed to feel like this will never get better, but that's the only thing I can think right now. I can't stop crying but it feels so awful to do it.

I'm so so sorry. I wish I could give you a real hug if you wanted one.

I'm sorry you're going through this..I know it seems so hopeless when you're stuck in it. It's good to cry and let it out.

I have days were I feel good all day then out the blue I start to feel bad followed by bad thoughts. Then I good straight to bed. I don't know why it happens. I honestly think it's just part of us having a mood disorder. The moods come and go as they please. You don't "owe" anyone a good mood. All any of us can do is try to manage our conditions the best we can. If you have a support system reach out to them. Also know there are support groups. Google NAMI and DBSA...see if they have locations in your city.

I'm sorry you are feeling this way. Having crying spells can be exhausting (for me anyway), but at the same time, it's good to get out the feelings. It gets better, it's just the waiting that's hard. Please take care.
Thanks for this!

I'm sorry you're feeling this way. You're not alone. Sometimes i'll go for days without crying, I'll actually begin to believe i'm really happy. But then i break down and cry sometimes for no reason at all. I just feel sad. I'm here if you'd like to talk.

Thanks, everyone, for the repiles. I really appreciate the support. I feel isolated from a lot of people right now, so even virtual hugs are really important to me. I feel like my perceptions of things are really off right now--for example, my obsessions have gotten a bit worse over the past day or so, and small positive or negative things other people do seem very important to me for some reason. So I'm trying to tell myself that maybe this sadness is not such a big deal and will pass. I think whenever I start to feel a tiny bit better I get too excited and start thinking that I'll be better forever. So when I start to cry again it seems like a bigger failure than it is. The worst part of crying for me is when it first starts and feels so awful, like when I have a stomach bug and am about to get sick again (sorry TMI).
