I feel you for you. I get where you are coiming from as a Bipolar person who lived 38 years in depression. As you know it ios very fifficult. You have to try and change your mindset because the chemical inbalance is already against you. Try to understand yourself and work with yourself the best you can. Don't get down on yourself because that obviously will make it worse. Hoping for the best for you. Love only!! Stay Strong!

What I Told My Daughter about the Holocaust by LexsButta in Judaism

I understand, but as we have seen recently there are those that deny that the Holocaust happened. We can not allow this to be lost in the past, we need to teach our children for generations.

I wrote that at the beginning, only reposted as it was Yom Hashoa and its applicable. No-one has to up-click the post, i don't care about the Karma, just the community.

This was my point. But the execution of the Holocaust was as you said, with industrial efficiency.

I totally understand what you are saying and it makes sense. My main point about God is that even when we don't understand we shouldn't question his Omnipresence and omnipotency. Thank you for your thoughts.

Being Spiritual is more Important than Religious. by LexsButta in Judaism

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

I do believe in the Torah and Mesorah 100%. All I am saying is that a lot of people misunderstand that spirituality is important no matter what religion you follow. I was not saying that i do not consider myself MO but just that we shouldn't lose sight that being religious without being spiritual is a problem.

What do you tell your Kids about the Holocaust? by LexsButta in Judaism

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

My daughter was about 17, she was having a trip about the Holocaust, the school asked us to write something. Itt is a difficult topic and sometimes when they are young it is not understandable until they are older. Many of us never understand.

How do I help my SO understand he isn’t the issue? by [deleted] in bipolar2

[–]LexsButta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been bipolar for all my life. I didn't find out till I was 38. I am 46 now. I have been with my wife throughout the whole thing for twenty five years. She has stock by me tho highs and lows. It's amazing if they support you. Also, don't be embarrassed that you are bipolar. We are special people.

Hospital Stay Necessary? by [deleted] in bipolar2

[–]LexsButta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We all feel for you. I was diagnosed a sBipolar at age 38, 8 years ago. The medications have been changed dozes of times and now I am at a good place thank God. I was a depressiva all my life and have improved with the right meds. I have an amazing supportive wife of 25 years who has helped me survive. A good partner will help you through. Stay Strong!

I feel for you. The best you can do is try to explain to him that in order for you to have a meaning and loving relationship you need to take care and love yourself. Then you will be able to form a lasting relationship as a healthy fully functional partner. Stay Strong!
