I also self-sabotage, so I don't try to become manic. I just wait for depression.

In other words (even without the extra difficulties), insight is depressing. I'm stuck.
Insight is depressing.
How old are you, if I may ask?
I'm 23.

Too old to be this bad at dealing, managing, improving.

Insight just doesn't help me. Possibly makes it worse. Hopefully until it makes it better.

My belief system or chaos (I dare say I see a, rather intricate really, system) is messed up. I want pure irrationality. Probably never get it or shouldn't want it.

But that's me. Just BP is probably easier. I am pretty good at mania and depression, I might say.

There is still hope. Being older and wiser must help, I just don't see it.

Just stay determined. There is hope. Justified or not, I'd take it. I do.

If you had one external switch, maybe on your forehead or whatever , being stable, causing mania and then depression, like it melting a fuse, would you ever use it?

Instead of a switch I look at it as demonic possession.

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