Bipolar Support Group

Here i sit at work and am completely unable to function or be productive. I feel....nothing! It is even a struggle to type these few words. Going for a smoke even feels as if it is such a difficult and labouring task. My work is behind due to my two week hospital stay and I need to do some serious catch up,but......nothing!!!!

Muggins its going to be okay sweetheart. Hang in there. Look forward to something good that is going to happen.

That always gets me through the day.

Focus on getting one thing done. It sounds like you are over whelmed with your work. Just focus on getting one thing done within the next half hour. Make a list if you think that would help. Take some deep breathes and tell yourself that you can do this.... because you can!!!

Are you getting over a depression? Take it one thing and one day at a time. Don't look at the big picture because you will just get overwhelmed. You can do it just remember how strong you are. You have to be strong to deal with being bipolar.

Thanks for all your support, I will definitely heed all your advise.

P.S Taurus i acutally think i am heading into a depression again.

Muggins, it always helps me to make a list of things to do, and then like April said do one thing at a time. Crossing that item off the list feels good...

I also tell myself if I finish X, I will treat myself to a coffee today, or buy lunch out instead of eating a sandwich from home. Sometimes bribing myself helps too.

Well yesterday afternoon after my sad and dreary post - suddenly I was on fire!! Just going insane getting things done and having a blast - I guess that would have something to do with being a rapid cycler.

Thank you so much for all your advice - I am feeling more stable this morning, so lets see what this day brings. Thank Goodness It's Friday!!!!

Good luck sweetheart!

Hope you have a wonderful day..

Thanks for sharing. I get so overwhelmed that I walk and pace like a lion as the thoughts race so fast that a Jaguar couldn't keep track of them.

It does get better. Why don't you take a few Klonopin. It helps me lots when I get that way.

Cheer up, darling, you are not alone.
