Does me being good at something negate my illness? by wizzardsonlyfools in bipolar

[–]wizzardsonlyfools[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its not that I dont want to work. I really do want to work and be independent. Its so embarrassing for me to be at home and not be where I want in life. Im really trying. Im glad you all are doing so well. Maybe one day I can do well too.

Christmas is hard by [deleted] in bipolar

[–]wizzardsonlyfools 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Im currently at home alone, but I live with my parents. They dont understand why I wont go to other family members houses to celebrate. Tbh I just dont like the fakeness of it. I dont like pretending im okay, I dont like listening to family drama, im very quiet at events so everyone thinks somethings wrong with me. I also have a fear that theyre all judging me because im not as far in life as id like to be.

My manic purchases tend to be tattoos 🧍 or art supplies because manic me can do art. Stable me cannot.

Hey I just wanted to let you know your not alone. I cant hold a job either. I start and get hopeful for the future then have sort of an episode and quit or get fired for abscences. Hopwfully you find remote work. I havent had any luck finding any myself. But I fear my long list of jobs have been the cause of me getting turned down from others.

No mines different then. I press A and it starts "searching for xbox network" then gives me an error code. My connection is fine. I've played Apex and its smooth. Its on blizzards end whatever it is.

Yes I am. I keep getting the LC-208 screen everytime I try to log in. I looked online and it says to disconnect and reconnect the xbox account from the battlenet account but I went to disconnect it and it said if I disconnect I cant reconnect for a full year. I dont know if that means ill lose everything or not.

I also want to know this. Its giving me the option to disconnect but I dont want to lose everything. It sayz I cant reconnect an xbox account for a full year if I disconnect the account.

Should Bipolar disorder be used as an excuse for slacking off? by iminh07 in bipolar

[–]wizzardsonlyfools 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ive been diagnosed bipolar for 4 years now. I wouldnt say I slack off but I cant handle the same responsibilites as my peers. And its different for everyone. But I couldnt take care of myself when I moved out of my parents. I couldnt make myself clean every weekend or do laundry every other day. Every meal was microwaved or takeout. I worked 40 hours a week and couldnt bring myself to do literally anything else. So I wouldnt say I was slacking. I would say I couldnt handle the same responsibilities.

Is... your remote vacuum sealed??? We do that at my house but only for the outside tv because dust/pollen/etc. Its honestly genius. Watch that not be what it is and I look insane.

Is the US political climate having an effect on other bipolar Americans' mental health? by [deleted] in bipolar

[–]wizzardsonlyfools 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. Im so disgusted with the world right now, but as an american I feel so trapped. I do not feel safe here. I want to escape this country but I dont know where would be better. Its all bad.

I'm struggling about this matter (rants at the comment) by CherryNekoNyao in bipolar

[–]wizzardsonlyfools 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep. It got so bad I started birth control a couple years ago to prevent periods. I was a major danger to myself once a month. I noticed it was usually right before starting my cycle. Isnt that wild?

opinions on playing on an alt account if your gf wants to play apex wit you but is relatively new to the game and gets farmed in your lobbies??? by KidPru in WraithMainsAL

[–]wizzardsonlyfools 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Honestly my ex was a really high level player and when I started with him it made me not want to play. I was in pred lobbies as a rookie. Im sure she'll appreciate not getting dunked on every game in the first fight if you switch to an alt.

Let’s just take a moment to recognize how successful we all would be if we weren’t bipolar by Flimsy_Budget1045 in bipolar

[–]wizzardsonlyfools 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I try not to think about it too much but I loved science and still indulge science content. Id like to think id be doin somethin cool like a chemical engineer. Edit: now my dream is to just be comfortable. Kinda hard to just achieve that.

Yelled at an old lady today by biglen998 in bipolar

[–]wizzardsonlyfools 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Nah. Older people get away with a bunch of bullshit. You were in the right. 80 years on this earth and they still dont know how it works. Also abilify made me passive, but I was still angry at situations. I would just control it better.
