I was diagnosed wen I was 23 and was a relief and slowly working it out. I'm 28 and this year has been good apart from 1 thing. People just see me as the bipolar girl. It started when I had enough of being a door mat and decided to do what I needed and cut a lot of people from my life. They have told people, we'll customers of mine, things about me that they dont need to no. If I'm having a down day I get the same thing said, "u bipolar today". Why dont they understand that bipolar is something I have not what I am. It's like I no have to walk around always being happy, if I don't people start judging. This then sends me right off to the point I'm goin to bottle them. In the past I wud have but I calm my thoughts, go home and cry then I'm in my depression and I can't get out of it. I was in top of things now I'm finding it hard to sleep but cnt get up, I'm not eating properly again. Finding it hard to even take my dog out for a walk because I just dont want to see people. This then make me feel like I'm a horrible dog owner. I love my dog he's everything to me, and I do take I'm out but it's hard. I get so angry at the smallest things and my head tells me what the hell r u doin so I then go down. Atm I feel I'm only getting worse. Sorry about the rant and it make no sense but been up since 9 but haven't left my bed yet, heads in over drive. I never write on these kinda thing but thought it wud b a good place to get some shite out.

I could have written your post and likely most people here can agree... It's people not even reading the basics of "Bipolar 101"
Some people will never get it... I have for the most part come to expect the stupidity from some people and yeah the looks and people assuming anytime your not a walking smiling person its " Bipolar" We are all allowed to have a bad day and it have nothing to do with Bipolar. I wish I had some magic words.. I really dont , I just know exactly what your saying and going through. Im glad you have your fur baby to love on, Animals give 1000% love to us all the time.. I wish humans would do the same . Welcome to PC I hope being here helps you as much as it has helped me
