Something’s not right

Really wobbly

Really wobbly

Any advice and suggestions about how to stay grounded and do self care much appreciated. I have some big stressors in my life right now. That combined with Bipolar 1 and Anxiety is really knocking me around. Trying to sell home as result of marriage breakdown, pay debts, find new home. My daughter (who is my main support) is leaving home (can't blame her). I have a young son to look after and I'm trying to protect him from the strain of the situation. All this is coming off the back of a mixed episode, which has recently been replaced by plumetting mood and skyrocketing anxiety. I am teary and on the verge of panic and need to talk myself down - there's noone else to do it. The future is scaring me.

@Zoe7 I am doing pretty well thanks. Step by step, day by day. I had a lil win today in my mindfullness course I brought up Foucault and his Panopticon as an example of the observer. It reminded me so much about my university days. I really liked Foucault's teachings.

At least you know what is happening for your son and can help him @frog - that can only help him knowing and be able to get the support he needs - and you need too.

@Bunniekins great that you are using your previous studies in the here and now - isn't it wonderful when we can contribute to a discussion with confidence

@frog. Yes you look around thinking somethings different but it takes a while to work out the depression isn't stalking you anymore. An unrealistic experience. Til you finally acknowledge Depression has gone.
