is feeling Horrible
I have a family that I neglect. I used to have hobbies that I loved but now I don't do them.. I used to have a job but now I can't work. I need to lose weight, and recently joined a gym with my daughter. I hope it helps. Now I spend a lot of my time in Second Life™ searching for meaning in a world that is essentially meaningless. I gave up on Real Life, because I could make no sense of it. Learn more about my experiences and thoughts at: http://bedknobsbroomsticksandbipolardisorder.blogspot.com

Nervous breakdown, hospitalizations, ECT. You know, the usual. I may feel unique compared to everyone I know, but compared to other people with bipolar disorder, I'm just one more lost soul.. My body is extremely resistant to treatment right now, and therapy isn't getting me anywhere either. Stuck in a black depression that just will not end. Flights of mania over top of it periodically, but the depression never leaves, and the mania manifests itself as paranoia, anger, and excessive spending.
Used to be thin. Gained 40 lbs in one year on psychiatric medications. Having trouble taking the weight off due to increased hunger caused by meds, and sleep-eating as a result.
Just diagnosed with Borderline Personality Disorder. Was diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder in 2005. Had a nervous breakdown. Have had 6 ECT treatments. My daughter was diagnosed Borderline when she was 16. She's now 20.
