Hi, I’m new here. Hello to everyone. I’ve been struggling with bipolar, depression. I currently feel spaced out, dazed and like I’m in a fog. I’m having a hard time just keeping up with dressing, cooking, the basic everyday things. I used to be so independent and miss those days badly. My doctors say I’m a complex case which doesn’t make it any better. I feel like I’m hanging on by a thread.

welcome! You have found a great group to support. I think we are all complex cases. I’m sorry to hear though you are struggling now. Mental health is so key…coming here is a great start. Most of us work hard to get through days. A thread yesterday suggested taking things minute by minute. This made me smile a little. I too feel like things can change within seconds at times. I hope you like your doctor and have a good relationship. Self care!
Welcome to the site. Are you on any medication that could be causing your symptoms?
My depression stands in the way of my productivity. I find it hard to get motivated.
Thank you for the welcome. I’m glad I found this site and I didn’t know about the chat so Thanks. I hope to gain some knowledge on how to get through this each day. I will be back daily and definitely ask questions
