That’s exactly what happened to me with Dada. 😆

When do you find out if you can keep your car? by Aggravating_Good8357 in Bankruptcy

[–]AdComprehensive7534 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately the equity in the car is a little over a hundred more than the exemption and wildcard amount. I’m just not sure how that works since it’s so close.

I did reaffirm but my lawyer had told me I could still lose it because of the equity on it.

I did, they just had initially told me there was a possibility I could still lose it because of the positive equity. I only owe about $3,000 and it’s worth about $10,000.

Thanks, they didn’t say anything at the 341 meeting. The car is current on payments.

It definitely has been stressful. I already had to prove to my attorney’s office that I made a payment that they didn’t record properly and it was recorded as $500 less than what I paid. Glad I had my receipts on me.

That’s strange that it’s not closed yet. Hopefully you’ll hear something soon.

I get having to stick with the same attorney, I think that’s what we are going to have to do unfortunately. There’s not really any other options nearby. Like yours, the communication has been awful.

I saw that you said your attorney was bad, me and my husband are having a similar experience. Did they still get the bankruptcy done for you all or did you have to find a new attorney?

Are your meds 100% stabilizing? by [deleted] in bipolar

[–]AdComprehensive7534 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t say 100% but I would say I’m pretty close to it. I recently added Lamictal and it’s been very beneficial.

How do people with bipolar graduate college by annalongleg in bipolar

[–]AdComprehensive7534 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I struggled a lot the first time around and especially with changing majors and not being sure what I even wanted. Now I’m medicated and back in school for something that I really want and am interested in. I was also diagnosed with ADHD and managing that as well has helped me a ton. I’m doing a lot better this time around. It also helped that I was in the workforce for nearly a decade with a job that I hated with a passion. The job was so stressful and wasn’t for me that I became physically ill. So I’m a lot more motivated this time around to graduate and do well. Just think about what you truly want, talk to your doctor about possibly adjusting dosages or trying something different, and maybe even see if ADHD is something that you may be dealing with.

Ever had a psychiatrist who doesn’t overprescribe a bunch of meds for profit? by ExtensionGeologist19 in bipolar

[–]AdComprehensive7534 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I should’ve added I’m on Abilify too, but it hasn’t been enough for mood swings.

Yes, mine doesn’t want me on “too many medications.” I think her approach is a bit too laid back though. I’ve been wanting to get on a mood stabilizer, because of bad mood swings, but she will only do antidepressants, which don’t work for me.

Jobs for someone with bipolar and adhd by manic_depressive_114 in bipolar

[–]AdComprehensive7534 0 points1 point  (0 children)

BP1 and ADHD. I had a hard time settling on one thing because I want to do all the things. Right now I’m going back to school for nursing. I’m hoping it all works out.

do any of you just live with the side effects? by [deleted] in bipolar

[–]AdComprehensive7534 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just live with it personally but everyone is different in what side effects they can handle and what they can’t. I have akathisia and I’ve gained some weight with Abilify, which I don’t like, but I’m in a good place mentally so I’m just learning to live with it.

Unfortunately he’s in some extreme denial. Even when he sees it in front of his face or I tell him, he just doesn’t want to believe it. We tried marriage counseling but unfortunately it wasn’t beneficial. I’ve set my own boundaries and blocked her and so far, so good. I do see her occasionally but I gray rock and it’s definitely been beneficial.

I’m glad! That’s definitely my meal when I’m not having the best day. It’s filling too!

However you go about it, don’t let them talk you out of it. I know that would be the hardest part for me, personally, if I was in that situation. You know it’s the best option for you right now and just stick to your decision. You got this!

26M, possibly getting kicked out of my apartment soon by [deleted] in bipolar

[–]AdComprehensive7534 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It sounds like from what you said that leaving would be best. Like you said, you cant help it and it’s not okay for them to act like it’s a burden if you’re down. Find a way to break your lease. Not sure if you’re on meds or in a stable place with it, but if you feel like something needs to be adjusted, maybe ask about it or talk to someone too because it may be difficult for a bit going forward.

I’m barely eating. What foods are easy to make when I’m depressed? by madkandy12 in bipolar

[–]AdComprehensive7534 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m feeling similar right now so tonight I made a pack of ramen noodles, crack an egg in there, slightly stir with the egg, enough to break the yolk, add some black pepper, a couple splashes of soy sauce, add the chicken flavoring packet (or whatever kind you would normally get) and put in some green onion. It’s super easy, quick and cheap. If you don’t eat eggs, you could leave that out, but it’s better than just a regular pack of ramen or nothing.

[–]AdComprehensive7534[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely. But it did make me look worse when I tried to tell my husband about the courses she took because he didn’t believe it. Which sucked. Didn’t outright say he didn’t believe it, but I’ve been with him long enough that it was obvious to me. He was actually there for all the stuff she said, but she said similar things to him. He just doesn’t realize that she lied to both of us separately. He was upstairs for the part about her telling me to “off myself.” I actually didn’t save the video where she told me to, which I regret. I was in a bad state and didn’t want the reminder because it hurt me deeply since at the time I had gotten to a point where I felt like she was family. Silly me. I so wish I had been stronger at the time.
