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 All this is coming off the back of a mixed episode, which has recently been replaced by plumetting mood and skyrocketing anxiety.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

I hope tomorrow (work) goes well for you @frog

I'm an expert at hiding away (myself), although it doesn't always go according to plan....

I need another weekend now that this weekend is over - I'm too tired, definitely not up to Monday.

Thinking of you and know you must have felt very down to make your big post. Loved the the lil frog peeking through ... I am sure you did the work thing just fine.

Hope the home front is not a battle.

I just had a short break from the forum.

Thanks for the kind words @Appleblossom

Over the hump for the work week and soldiering on!

Home front is mixed, but all in all I'm finishing the week stronger than I started it.

Take care

I hear the huge amount of resilience it takes to get through those hurdles and humps. @frog

Though sometimes I want to scream when told I am resilient.

Take Care of you as you take care of business ...

@Appleblossom I get it re resillience. We need it and we have it, but when someone with no lived experience of MI tells me that I'm resillient I also want to scream 'I KNOW'
