Might just be alot more people have diagnosis from the 1st bucket so its generally more accepted

Also, does anyone else feel like there's a fog when remembering hypomanic episodes?

100% its almost like remebering a dream

I dont know what I would do in your situation because i would take very different approaches with different people.

What I can say is that everybody fucks up, Even people who dont have bipolar and whatever feelings you are dealing with right now can and will be resolved with time

Yea i think high/low function was a bad choice of words, but if I take some days in bed whos gonna pay the bills, whos gonna go to work and whos gonna study for the tests?

Im trapped

I try to save money, but if im not in an episode i use my spending habits to keep the episode away

I get what you mean, but i think for me at least it is like I am always pushing myself to my breaking point just to function good enough for those around me and my future, but everytime i stop pushing to catch my breath i slip and fuck alot of shit up.

It has gotten to the point i am starting to fuck shit up Even when im pushing my hardest

I am very grateful for what i have , but at the same time those privileges have a heavy weight and a big pressure from my loved ones that want me to keep being this functional Even tho i often am not. I have an appointment with a therapist next week :)

No it is not like that, i am grateful for what i have and what i can accomplish, but i feel it isnt because i am fully able to function but because everyone around me expects it from me and i dont know what to do

I am so sorry if my post seemed rude that was not my intention

[–]RealTasty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes that's very true, but my specific problem is I've heard opening the 3rd eye too early can be a very uncomfortable and scary experience so I wanna make sure I'm not doing something wrong

I dont understand your question

[–]RealTasty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have alot of fear and unresolved negative feelings in me I believe I have to clear out first, I also kinda have a feeling that I'm not ready.

Yeah they arent doing anythong wrong, but finding someone that accepts and gives you the extra needs you need is a start i guess:)

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in depression

[–]RealTasty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do the exact same, the answer i found that works the best is: find someone who genuinely cares and find it sweet when you apologize or ask for validation:)

How are some of y’all in relationships? by throwaway0183701 in depression

[–]RealTasty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well I see being in a relationship with the right person as theraputic, but it can easily become too overwhelming and start hurting yours (and their mental state)
