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 All this is coming off the back of a mixed episode, which has recently been replaced by plumetting mood and skyrocketing anxiety.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.

Re: Really wobbly

Just feeling really, really sad. Bad things happening to a dear family member and nothing I can do. Can't even be there. Too far away. dk why I'm posting. Maybe just talking to myself. Keep going frog. There is nothing else for it.

Hi @frog I'm sorry that it's so sad about your family member.

My brother too (miserable happenings) - I can relate very much to how you feel.
