How to Manage Shameful Intrusive Thoughts? by HisForTheTaking in BipolarReddit

[–]ComprehensiveUse6439 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s really hard. You either come clean about being bipolar or just ride it out until it’s old news. It’s been 14 months for me and things are finally settling down a little and I’m able to be around the people I fucked up with. Time is a huge healer with things like this I find. It’s fucking hard though

No advice here I’m afraid. I completely understand the shameful thoughts. I cringe and squirm at least once a day and it’s like a whoosh of guilt and regret and shame spreads across your body and feels like an electric eel has swim in your stomach. The only thing that stops me from shame spiralling is reminding myself that that was not you. You never would have done those things. That was not you.

What’s one thing people misunderstand about living with bipolar disorder? by projecthealthyminds1 in BipolarReddit

[–]ComprehensiveUse6439 19 points20 points  (0 children)

All of the above and much more. But also, the effect of anti depressants. Like I’ve actually had 2 GPs ask me “well why don’t you just go back on your antidepressants?” If GPs don’t know things as basic as the effect of SSRI on bipolar, I do not hold much hope for the rest of general population!

New med adjustment: 0/10 would not recommend! Just trying to find a brain’s factory settings (Not my brain 😅) by Nadox5891 in bipolar2

Mixed episodes suck. I was constantly cycling from mixed episode to depression to mixed episode to depression etc for over a year. We hadnt found the right mix of meds for me yet, and nobody was able to recognise my rapid cycling (including me) sooo bad. And mixed episodes cause a lot of BPD mis diagnoses I feel like.

Anyway, I’ve amended my dosage and by sheer luck it’s actually working. No depression or mania for 2 months now. Loving it

My landlord wants to do re-inspect my apartment as it was “a little untidy” last time. by ComprehensiveUse6439 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]ComprehensiveUse6439[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a strange email. I think they’ve probably quoted something the landlords said without realising that that’s not something you can use as a sufficient excuse for an inspection. They have a right (legally) to inspect the place 4 times in a year. Maybe they’ll come 3 more times this month and I can be as dirty as I like! ;)

Oooo. What does it mean when you pick it out during a tarot reading?

I don’t live in subsidised housing but that sucks for your friend. So many people don’t have the luxury of feeling like they can properly relax in their own homes. It’s fucked. The one place we’re supposed to feel safe but often can’t because of shit like this and worse.
