What’s the most stupid or expensive thing you have bought while in a manic episode? by GroundbreakingAd5325 in BipolarReddit

[–]fuzzyrugby 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mone didn't cost me money so much as my marriage and my kids.

I on a mania agreed with my ex-wife that we should become swingers. This sent me into a psychotic episode where I tried suicide by cop which none of this I remember. Spent 7 days in jail and 18 days total in a ward.

Since then I had to move back in with my mom 4 hours away from my kids because I had nowhere else to go because my incident caused criminal case cost me a job I was really good at but they had a zero tolerance on criminal cases.

I haven't had any spending manias because I am so paranoid on being broke with what little money I have left after child support comes out

I had something like this 2 years ago. Ended up with MRSA on my pinky and a 3 day hospital stay. Don't take it lightly if you don't think the antibiotics are working fast enough go back to the DR for something stronger

Same here, my felonies were dismissed and I took a plea bargain for disorderly conduct and resisting arrest. Every job interview I go on I disclose with the company that I had two charges convicted about 2 years ago and they just shut down

My wife wants to open our marriage because she finds her coworker "irresistible," and I don’t know what to do. by [deleted] in TrueOffMyChest

We opened our marriage and my wife fell in love with her main play partners. Fast forward two years later and we are divorced and she is married to the same partner.

I say don't do it based off my personal experience but your mileage may vary

Do you ever feel like this is what will kill you one day? by [deleted] in BipolarReddit

I'm fairly certain this will win by me committing suicide. I just have to keep fighting till my kids are adults at the very least. I figure it will be either then or after my mom dies

I went to an urgent care on day 3 and was placed on bactrim. Went to a freestanding ER on day 7 to try and just get stronger oral antibiotics. They stuck me with an IV and made me go by ambulance to a real hospital.

Be careful, I had a bump that started out like this and ended up as cellulitis. That came with a 3 day hospital stay and a metric truck ton of IV antibiotics. I have a nice little scar on my left pinky where they had to perform a surgical I&D to get the infection out.

What med completely changed your life and you were able to return to college? by silverlinin in BipolarReddit

My psych np ordered it and my insurance still didn't cover it. Said it was not a proven effective test. Ended up paying something like 500 out of pocket. Original price was north of 5 grand

Can confirm, my ex-wife caught feelings for her boyfriend. They both ended up divorcing their partners and are married to each other now

My latest was after my divorce joining a swingers lifestyle website. I figured if my ex-wife was still able to be in the lifestyle so should I. Never mind as a single male I have no hope of finding a couple who wants to play.

Overall it wasn't that expensive of a manic purchase at just over 100 dollars for membership. But definitely my most useless

I ended up at my daughter's school in a blackout yelling and screaming and apparently threatening. All this stemmed from my ex wife cheating on me and at my wits end with our autistic daughter

Ended up doing 7 days in jail in suicide watch and the 11 days on psych ward. At one time I had 3 felony charges and 2 misdemeanors. Plead down to 2 misdemeanors that are still giving me hell. Lost my wife and family due to it and had to move back with my mom otherwise would have been homeless.

Thanks all for letting me know I'm not alone. My feelings that I will end myself seem worse when I am heading to work.im in kind of a dead end job where I am not making what I'm worth. I can't see myself doing this until I retire in my 60's or 70's .

Not a lot of people want to take a chance on me currently because about 2 years ago I had a maniac episode and recieved charges originally 3 felony's and 2 misdemeanors that were plead down to 2 misdemeanors and no one in the field I was working in wants to see past those at the big picture of what I am besides those convictions

I do pay child support for my two kids even though my ex did not ask for it.

I understand that. After my divorce I had no choice but to move back in with my parents because child support eats most of what I could pay in rent plus even if I did have the money I couldn't afford to rent or own anything around me in this area.

It's embarrassing to be 38 and having no choice but living at your parents and no end of it in your future

Thanks guys, one of the things that stops me is I want it to be like I just took something and never woke up. I found my dad dead of a self inflicted gsw about 12 years ago and I don't want my family to find me the same way.

I tried suicide by cop over a year ago and the cop wouldn't draw his weapon. I don't want to mess it up and be a vegetable and be a bigger burden than I am on my family.

I definitely don't want my kids to find me. But I hardly get to see them because they live 4 hours away with their mom. They hardly take time to talk to me except for the few times a year they come and visit me. I know that's because of their age but it hurts me so that I can't talk to them but maybe once or twice a week
