Bipolar Support Group

Hey all, I just thought I`d get some opinions out here on something that I am sure we all deal with daily.

OK, so I have this friend that I have to be very careful it seems with what topic I get into with, or he has a habit of bragging and outlining every accomplishment in his life.

Now, what I want to know is, who else thinks sometimes they might have a hard time defining the fine line between someone else being out of line and themselves just being irritable?

Probably lots, but lets have some examples!

Could be fun

I have known people who immediately just shift the focus to themselves. I just figure that they are really deficient in self esteem. The compulsive need to present oneself as either superior or at least to focus on oneself is a sign that they were marginalized as a child. At least that's what I think. Sure it's irritating. But when I think of someone like that, I feel less irritated; I start feeling sorry for them.

good advice for sure, pity thy neighbor rather than cast anger on them, SOMEbody`s been eating their SaintFlakes for breakfast!!!

i sometimes have to stop to remind myself we are all people, some with problems, some not as much.

Ive taken up in the last couple months instead of judging someone for what they are doing, asking myself why? Its easier some days than others of course, but Im feelin back in the swing, I feel good tonight for example
