No #BorderlinePersonalityDisorder

So, I had my therapy appointment yesterday and he said he doesn’t see #BorderlinePersonalityDisorder he sees more #Bipolar2 . He did say he can’t diagnose me this his observation. The hypomania is off the charts I feel extremely high, extremely happy, wired and irritated. I still haven’t heard back from my psychiatrist yet. Yesterday I was very fatigued less energy my therapist said it’s called a crash. Last night I couldn’t sleep so I’m closely watching this.

Happy Mother’s Day

I went to the mall today got my Starbucks. It was buy one get one so I got my friend a Starbucks drink. I was sitting with my friend who has #Bipolar unspecified disorder. She works at Starbucks and we actually bonded over mental health . We have been talking for awhile now. I felt extremely happy today and much more alive does that make sense. I was very giddy. She says sounds like I am hypo manic. #BorderlinePersonalityDisorder #PTSD #GeneralizedAnxietyDisorder #Bipolar2 . I walked 11,670 steps,78 minutes of exercise and 4.55 miles

Well, meds…

Well, went to a pathways clinic to do a substance abuse assessment, didn’t seem to have a problem with that but the counselor thinks I need bimonthly therapy, one-on-one… Then, during the clinic Dr’s appt, the doc gave me Rxs for generic Trileptal and Vistaral. I guess I know/knew I have issues with anxiety and mania, now maybe a bit(?) bipolar…. Don’t usually sleep well most nights, since I was a young kid.

I guess knowing some type of meds may stop or even slow down the brain would be nice after all this time.

I had thought about therapy of some kind years ago, but was trying to take care of others, so put it off.

Well, thanks for listening a minute.

Good wishes for everyone here on The Mighty…

I did it 😁

First off, thanks to everyone for your suggestions and encouragement. It means the world that I have all these people truly rooting for me - and not judging me if I can't get through.
But I did it! I put on my Lana Del Rey & Taylor Swift playlist and got stuck in. And now my sanctuary is restful again.
I've made the decision to keep my laundry basket out in the open, so I use it. I had it in my closet, and it was very much out of sight out of mind.
Thank you all again! I love this community, and I will absolutely do what I can to help and encourage others, as my spoons allow 💚 #Bipolar2 #BipolarDepression #ThankYou #Cleaning

I've really been struggling with cleaning lately. Normally I can at least keep my bedroom neat, but as you can see, that is not happening. I have to clean it up. The chaos makes me feel even worse, and I know it will take me less than an hour... But I just can't make myself do it. Any tips for how to make doing it easier? Just looking at it makes me want to cry.
