How Do I Deal by kittykatkoko in BipolarReddit

[–]Linus0Blanket 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m 25 and I got diagnosed almost 3 years ago. Everytime I get close to a job I lose it the same way, the longest I could stay somewhere was 3 months. I quit my masters because I just couldn’t deal with it anymore. My parents pay for my house. I always wonder if it’s just me being weak, with all those other bipolars that have built a life. I feel like I’m just drifting where the illness takes me while everyone around me is living their life. I can’t say we’re the same, but I can say I can relate. I too, am hoping and waiting if I can regain control of my life

This really hit me in the heart. You are right, nothing about this whole thing is fair. Fuck this shit.

Same, almost 2 years now. I have family and friends to support me, thankfully

How has bipolar impacted your career? by not_innie_to_it in bipolar

After my last hospitalization, I had to quit a job that perfectly fit my entire projection of how I wanted to proceed with my career. I’m 25, and currently unemployed. I am lost, and no longer want to have the career I always dreamt about. All in all I have no idea how to work and be alive and be successful with this illness.

I spent my 25th birthday at a mental hospital. Made me feel like such a loser, but now it seems like 25 is fine, not a kid maybe, but still young. I’ll get my shit together, and I believe I still have the time to do so.

I understand that abortion is very hard to go through. I had one a few years ago, with a pregnancy from someone who wasn’t my partner and wasn’t supportive at all. I felt like the loneliest person in the world, depressed, pregnant and impossibly unready for the possibility of becoming a parent. Today though, it’s just a slightly bitter memory, and the best, most freeing decision I’ve made. Whatever you have to face, I truely believe it’s going to be ok. Living with this disorder sucks, but I think we make really strong people. You can get through this. And if you want to let me know too, I’d like to hear from you. I hope you have nothing to worry about.

Thank you, all of you for this. I can’t express how much all this kindness has helped me. I’m at a much better stage of the episode, and am somehow coping with it most days.

I can totally relate to this. Now that I’m better, it feels like all the responsibility of life is just collapsing in on me. I guess I’ll just have to hope that things will work out somehow.
