For years I didn't have the foggiest idea what it was that was happening to me. I ate everything in sight and sleeping passed time and took me to a happy place. I just couldn't wait to get home from work to be finally left alone.

Then, throughout the years in dealing and trying to understand my bi-polar daughter taking her to all types of counseling, my depression was pointed out to me. I had no idea.

Anyways, in dealing with her last bout of anger, sarcasm, lies and stealing, me setting some boundaries it's taking just about every ounce of willpower I have to not completely empty out the frig and then climb right into bed for a nice long nap.

Powerful stuff.....

It's truly a tough thing but I'm glad you finally got diagnosed for it Sometimes just being able to name it is a powerful thing. You are among peers here!

Wow that is really tough. Dealing with one of us for all that time and then finding out you are one of us. j/k
I have a friend who just confided in me that she has a bipolar daughter. She herself suffers from PTSD and depression. She has told me some about how difficult if has been dealing with her daughter and her behaviour.
