how is it possible that i wake up one day numb, emotionally shut down, monotone, and blank, but wake up the next with more emotions then i can deal with.
i hate it.
it keeps me miserable.
it makes me unpleasant.
it makes others hate me.
and it makes me hate myself.
what is the point of living a life like that.
i cant help anyone because im too busy taking care of myself.
but thats a waste of time.
because i cant even help myself.
i feel like i should cry.
but ive done it so much i dont have tears left to cry.
im dry. and dead. and helpless.
i need to just take a bottle of pills. or an overflowing bath. i need to 'shave' or 'iron'.
i need to feel something on the outside because i cant feel anything on the inside.
im just messed up. im a freak. im worthless. im a waste.
dont try and help because im not asking.
i just need someone to know im not the superwoman i show everyone.
i guess i put myself in this mess though. im just a girl stuck in between the quickly closing in walls i built around myself.

(((allie))) It sounds like you are on an emotional rollercoaster. Is it like this all the time? do you have a T?

allie, it sounds like you are rapid cycling. i am bipolar and with meds the roller coaster is manageable. i don't know your dx but it sounds a lot like i was and i was purely miserable until i got a pdoc that found a good combo of meds that stabalized me. it's been good for about 20 years now doing that and therapy about every 6 weeks.
i can totally relate how u r feeling right now. can you see a pdoc to start you on the road to normalcy? note i didn't say normal. lol. i can't claim normal but i sure am a lot better.

I get like that - I'm BPII with rapid cycling.
My colleagues, friends and boyfriend never know what Jackie they're going to wake up to. I'll be totally depressed on day, take a sleeping tab to climb into bed and hide, and the next day I wake up fine..
It is draining. I'm busy chatting to my pdoc to change my meds, and will see my T tomorrow
