Again I am having trouble with the holidays.
Depression, sadness and loneliness. I have invitations but I don't want to attend. I feel like I am just a body to fill up a space. That no one would even notice if I were there. My FOO will just criticize and make demands and my teens are teens. I got depressed this time of year and last year and went off my meds. I am not going to do the same this year, but I want to. It seems for my bipolar, the meds seems to work for mania but not so great for depression. I hate bipolar. Last edited by Anonymous37883; Dec 20, 2015 at 06:15 PM. |

I've found nothing med wise that works for depression. It sucks. I'm with you. It's really hard not having my husband here, especially since this was his favorite holiday. I'm trying to keep up appearances for my son as he's only five but it's hard.

You are doing such a great job.Your son is lucky to have you.
And I know I am the same person I was a month ago when I wasn't depressed. Depression is just a mind f***. UGH. This happens every winter. |

I'm brand new at this. This is my first post on a forum ever. I don't even understand all the "ins and outs" of how it works. Anyway, I read your post and am feeling the same way. I have family coming for Christmas and I feel overwhelmed by the idea of preparing dinner, etc. I've been depressed now for months with no relief. I can't seem to find any medicine that works for the depression either. I am grateful I haven't had any manic episodes though.

ValentineVVV, I'm sorry you are so bummed out this time of year. From what I read I think people would love your company. You seem like such a cool person and I know that I would want to hang out with you if I knew you. Despite all you are going through you always seem to stay positive which is an attractive quality in a person. Hang in there! The season's almost over!

You guys are really sweet.
I know it will pass. I am pretty confident when hypomanic and of course manic. But when depressed I feline a piece of crap. Fun disease.

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