I'm bipolar 2 and worrying about how to be a good mother to my almost-3-year-old is actually what led me to MD Junction a few months ago! I've been posting on the BP2 boards and just found this one today. Anyway, I have a terrible time sometimes trying to keep my cool when she loses hers, especially because my husband's job has him away sometimes and when I've had her all on my own for long periods of time, I really feel like I am going to go insane. I've tried various means of coping, from putting her in her high chair (so that I know she's safe) for a timeout and walking out of the room for about 10 minutes until I cool down to sometimes even taking a klonopin to mellow me out. Because otherwise, yeah, there are times when I feel like I'm ready to put a "Free to good home" sign on her and sit her next to the mailbox.  Sherry |
