Do you see a therapist at all?
Have you heard of mindfulness? Im sure it could help you a ton. I would look into it. Please don't hurt yourself...If your in danger please call a help line.
Hello Atwood,
I don't know how old you are or anything about your parents. I assume you have seen a professional therapist (or the likes) that has given you the diagnosis.
Are you in therapy and are you taking meds?
I am looking for a way for you to get support by someone who can assess your situation and have the knowledge of the services and laws in your area to get you help if you need it or if your parents need it.
It is not a easy thing to have to deal with the stress of trying to get by in life and finding the patience to be supportive to someone with bipolar.
There are a lot of unknowns for me but I can relate to the verbal and physical abuse. I didn't find out that I had depression and anxiety until later in life. But I can say that the fact that my mom was abusive caused some real problems for me socially and otherwise. I don't like the Idea of yelling and hitting at all! It really bothers me.
Don't kill yourself!
I know it's a horrible place to be when the thoughts turn that bad and you get so mentally tired from fighting mood swings and everything else that goes with having problems like ours. People who don't suffer with our kind issues don't understand and don't know how to deal with it themselves, I think that might be what's going on. They don't know what its like to feel alone and unwanted, but I do and I can say as I sit here writing this The experiences I have had in life the good and the bad were worth living for.
Don't give up the chance of something wonderful happening in your life somewhere down the road.
I will pray for and I wish you the best.
