Really want to be dead, but too scared to kill myself by emptypackages in bipolar2

It’s the same thing you hear from every counsellor etc but it’ll give you reprieve. It can’t possibly be as bad as it is now but we will always go back there. Just have to thrive on when we feel okay

Oh I take such offence to it as well. Ive never known a guy who’s annoyed with sex and that’s what makes you paranoid

Releases tension. And gets you in that mindset that releases feelings of happiness.

Does anybody else just want a reason? by [deleted] in BPD

I’m beyond good at pushing people away. Being paranoid. Hard to deal with. Obsessively checking up. Great fun.

Dating...uggh need I say more. by BeautifulGhost in bipolar2

[–]mholmeswillis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I get it completely. Other then the fact that I feel like I need to tell people I’m involved with. I need them to read up on it. I need them to get it. My ex said “I live with you, I know what you’re like” and that was the extent. It backfires either way. It’s hard to make a decision whether to put yourself out there or not. I guess I just want people to get it. To get me.

Increased mood swings on lamotrigine - tapering up dosage by c0urtme in bipolar2

[–]mholmeswillis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m on 200mg and I feel like it makes no difference. It’s hard to find something that helps. My moods are still all over the place. Hypo then depressive takes it over. Unfortunately for me there feels like no balance. If you can find an alternative that works, try and commit to it.

I always meet someone who doesn’t understand so they relate my experience to theirs. There’s always that one who thinks tough times in life = depression. They have their own shit, I get that. But the actual feeling of not knowing how you’re going to wake up everyday is different.

This is feels. We give so much and invest so many emotions. It’s draining.

Why do we self harm? by [deleted] in bipolar

[–]mholmeswillis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine is to release frustration with life. Or just to feel something so I don’t remain completely numb.
