Daily Life with Bipolar Disorder
As many with this disorder may know there are days when just getting up and out of bed seem to be an almost impossible task to handle. When depression kicks in all I want to do is just lay in bed and sleep the day away. I feel the lack of energy kick in and drain me of any excitement that anyone else with out this disorder feels. I gets to the point where I wonder if my own life was meant to sleep it away day by day. Left to wonder how long it will last. Around the holidays, things get worst. Seems like every support system that I have has abandoned me just because they seem not to be interested in dealing with me when I'm in this state of mind. When the depression passes comes a wave length of hypomania and mania episodes where sleep is the furthest thing from the mind. During these episodes, I am most destructive to myself. I feel like there is all this money in the world where I can spend and not have to worry about anything else that is in my life at the moment.
