Is there something bothering you right now?

It'll settle down, but if there are people who feel slighted by their share it'll never stop. Sounds like a bit of a toxic situation, best thing you can hope for is to remain stable through it all. Lean hard on your coping skills, my friend.

Being so sick, I have no sense of balance, continually nauseous, can't see properly, yet emergency says there is nothing wrong with me other than blood in my urine from kidney stones.

I hope you feel better! You sound like you need the hospital.

I'm feeling much better! Woke up at 3:00 am but got back to sleep. Happy Labor Day!

My daughter being sick bothers me. I hope she's doing better. I still worry about her like a mom.

I don't want to take my new meds. I like my old cocktail. Would like to leave the unit for a walk but nobody will come to see me. I have ticked all of my peeps off.

I am sorry for you

I am having serious financial problems and I want to date but I am not ready, I would like to get a room mate but I am a loner and I thought that could help with my finances, I just dont trust people and am having a really hard time with that, I feel like I am stuck between a rock and a hard place

((((( Wolfeyes )))))

I am not sure why but people just don't like me. No matter what I try to do to please people, they just don't like me. It makes me a bit sad, but I am getting to the point where I might just give up and never try to make any friends again. I mean why bother, they aren't going to like me anyway. Maybe I am better off alone instead of facing rejection over and over. It cant be good for my mental health to be rejected over and over and to be upset about it. I give up.

That's exactly me.

I don't have any advice, but I chose to be alone instead of possibly facing rejection over and over. I know that's not the best choice I could have made, but I can only handle so much rejection and I feel like I need to "protect" myself.

But anyway, some people can be downright mean no matter what you do. They just find reasons to hate you; it's like it's part of their personality or something. So those sorts of people I ignore because they're obviously only interested in making themselves feel better by putting others down. I don't care for people who are disrespectful like that.

I just choose not to make strong bonds with people anymore. This way if I get rejected, it doesn't affect me as much. I'm like, "oh well. We weren't great friends anyway. No real loss here."

I can really relate. I've already given up both on friends and romantic relationships.

I hate birthdays. Just another year gone by for me to sit and think about my faults, shortcomings and problems and to realize i am no longer the strong and sure person i used to be.

Exactly why I sit at home on my bday. I'm sorry someone else feels as crappy as I do on my bday.

I decided not to sit on my *** all day and went to work. Now I'm just thinking I'll leave early and console myself with some herbal medication.

How well does the herb do for your motivation?

I don't think it affects my motivation much. I smoke more than i should, but I still can work and go climbing and such. I have other things causing problems with motivation but they are more related to my mental illness.

EVERYTHING is bothering me right now and it's pissing me off to no end. Thanks to those of you who have let me vent and/or have been a shoulder I can cry on (you know who you are I think). Anyway, I'm just in a really bad depression right now, so much so that I can't even cry. I just feel like a complete failure in life and wonder if things will ever truly get better, or am I just wasting my time going to school and trying to better myself.

Fair enough. I find when I smoke or dab that it evens out my moods on both sides, keeps my head clear, and makes me operate better overall....for a while. Then it kind of takes over and anything can happen - usually ends badly. I'm 1.5 years sober, and my episodes have been more stable than ever.

I have been smoking for a while. A couple years before diagnosis and a couple years since. I think I've finally hit the magic combo with my meds, so my next step is to use what coping skills I learn in therapy to replace the green. I want to be done with it in the next month or so, just trying to taper off of heavier use so i don't get hypo like i have in the past when I've taken a break from it.

I've lost it entirely and gone psychotic by stopping cold turkey. Not exactly the best way to end up IP, let me tell you.

What's bothering me is my husband's uncle wiping out the family fortune and bolting to California after the grandmother died. There is no funeral, nothing for her because the money is gone.

OMG...that's horrible! Sorry to hear that

I've dealing with headaches and nausea at least half the days of the week for a couple of weeks or so. Idk if it's stress or what. Going to bed tonight with the same headache I had last night.

Hope they go away soon. Have you thought about talking to your doctor?
