You are NOT a failure. Yes, you relapsed, but that is not the end of the world. I haven't been on here much either lately and the wierd thing is, I came on today because I really want to cut and needed some support. So, I guess we can be in this together. I am praying for you, that you can...

Low and angry. I am so irritable with the people who are closely involved in my life. I guess i am worried about my physical health too. Some numbness/tingling in my arms and hands - had an MRI and get results on Monday. I hate being bipolar. TN

Hi all! I know it's been a long time, and there are some of you i don't know! Eek! Things are rough around here. I go see the Pdoc today. Not looking forward to it. Hope you all have a good day. TN

Low today, lots of anger and resentment inside.

Just a comment. I have noticed with "benzos" - I take Xanax, if i miss a dose i get really shakey. My hands and my insides just quiver away. But, when i do take them, they help me so much! i have been on them for about 3 years - don't know what I'd do if i ever had to come off. It's good to...

Low. Very low. What else is there to say?

Praying for your mom! I too have had experience with patients with psychiatric diagnoses and i agree with Madison - hoping and praying you can have the patience and love you need to help her and your dad and YOU through this! TN

Hi all! I have an "assignment" from my T to write 30 minutes a day, just write. I used to journal a ton and it was so helpful, but now, the words just won't come. I just feel empty and unable to let it out on paper - problem is I am not too good at letting it out any other way either. I am...

Hi all! Laura - I'm glad to hear the biopsy itself went well, but sorry you're in so much pain :( Gerry - I'll pray the weekend goes well for you! Today has been rough. I am wondering if things will ever be "OK" again. Sometimes I wonder if I had never been "formally" diagnosed as...

April - sending many prayers your way - email me if you need to! Thanks for all your support about my T. Problem is, i feel kinda trapped into the relationship - I've been with him for over 4 years. I don't know what to do. I go see him today and am really nervous. Prayers would be...

Praying for everyone who needs prayer and rejoicing with those who are doing so well. Things here are HORRIBLE! I don't know if I'm in a hypomanic phase or what. I'm just really emotional, get angry at the drop of a pin, start crying and have anxiety attack and anger that turns into rage. I...

praying for you! Have you ever spoken with a pastor or someone you trust about this? I hope you can find the strength to reach out to someone in the "real" world,, although all of us here will be happy to help however we can. TN

Still low - I've been low for almost a month now. I wish I could get out of this "funk", but every time I start to feel better something will happen to pull me back down. A huge part of this is anger and feeling all alone. Being Bipolar is hard.

Hi everyone. I haven't posted here much before, but I am really struggling right now. I've been diagnosed for a year and a half and still feel horrible about it. I'm in a really dark spot and it feels like no one here understands. I saw my psychologist today and he just let me "sit with my...

Hi everyone! I'm doing ok. How is everyone else? TN
