some people don't want us to use bipolar as an excuse....
my family did that to me in the past. not fun. I think it is useful to help explain behaviors. bizi

People suk. We work so hard trying to get through our days.
Yet, we are told to try harder or get a better doctor or at least stop complaining / explaining. M |

it is so ******* frustrating. i told her she appears to know more than all the psychiatrists in the world with their training and experience. she makes me feel worse. I was making some progress and stayed in bed til 10 am. here it goes again. i am making coffee again. she is making me realize how horrible parts of my life are.this week i left the apartment maybe three times to go for little walks with cecilia. going to the senior center was too much for me. all i wanted to do was lie in bed.now i am all back to square one. I think i will have my coffee and read,.
if i can read. this time i don't know how to get myself out of my conflict with know it all stella who thinks i have a choice in the matter of my moods. she thinks i had a choice in sleeping for three hours a night for eight months being so upset over losing abby. I wanted to sleep. bobby s Last edited by Chemar; 04-03-2016 at 09:25 AM. Reason: * word filter |

Just what you needed right now…
Some people simply can't accept the idea that some behaviors aren't our choice because they really don't understand mental illness. Like Bizi said, some people may feel like we're using it as an excuse. It always made me feel like a piece of **** when my husband would throw that at me because I knew I couldn't change even though I wanted to and there was no way to convince him otherwise. Knowing you as I do, you've probably already emailed her hundreds of links to literature on the subject, but I know this has been an ongoing issue with her. I'm sorry that she's unsympathetic and making you feel bad Bobby. I know Stella is your best friend, but I wish she was a better friend to you sometimes. You deserve that. I'm glad that you have been getting out of the apartment, even if it's only been 3 times. I know that you've been feeling rotten. Going to the senior center is probably a lot to ask right now, but just going on walks is a good thing until you feel better. I hope you feel better |
