I know when I started taking risperdal I worried and obsessed less. I still worry a lot but appear to be a lot more selfish than you are. I also have more of an attitude which maybe you can adapt which might also come from being older, that most things are out of my control and I can't do anything about them and maybe they are meant to be in the "greater plan" and who am I to question the greater plan? Two friends of mine say that we get older, we come to realize that most things are out of our control. Our trying to control things as bipolars put a great deal of stress on ourselves. You are amazing that you can get yourself to work. That is one huge accomplishment. I am certain you are excellent at what you do. You also have a wonderful relationship with your husband. That is awesome. I don't know if these are in your control or not but they are huge things. You are also the most wonderful friend to us.

ps I also think bipolars have a lot of mental energy and they have to get rid of it somehow or else it turns into depression...so maybe these worries are also releases
