depression, anxiety, panic and fear of becoming that bi polar high guy that spends all my money. It never ends. Like there is no hope. Considering giving guardianship to my son because I can’t be trusted with my finances. There just seems to be no “in between “ place ever.

Yes, I have bipolar disorder myself and money is tight. I don’t want to do any manic spending either. I watch it with credit cards. It’s too easy in some of these stores to buy stuff you really don’t need. Be careful putting someone else in charge of your money. They could have sticky fingers.
Hello sir, thank you for sharing. I have no specific advice bc not having enough money is a tough problem and a lot of us have the same issue. What constitutes manic spending depends on your income and resource level. Keep a positive attitude and a plan and never give up.
You could use some money strategies. IDK but it doesn't hurt to try. Like putting your cards in the freezer in water or giving them to your son if you trust him. Using cash only. once your allowance for the week is gone that's it. Now you gotta find something healthy like walking. The idea is to give yourself time to settle down and think.
In order to get yourself out of that mind set you need to find strategies to "interrupt" your thinking. There are a zillion ways to do it. CBT is good for bipolar. But there are other methods too. Do you have a therapist?

I appreciate the comments regarding my previous post but With this endless cycle of depression anxiety never ending no matter what meds I take it really makes an old guy feel totally hopeless.
