Super excited then equally the polar opposite. It’s like something bumps me off into hopelessness. From optimistic to pessimistic in no time. For me, I rabbit hole in my head digging deeper and deeper. Idk if you feel like this ever but that’s how it happens for me

Yeah sometimes I rapid cycle but sometimes I am just really really elated for weeks then really really depressed for weeks and I never know it's coming sometimes I am normal
What is normal? Such a subjective thing. Yeah it’s rough, I’ve been going through the ending of a long term relationship and it’s an adjustment probably exacerbating the issue lol
People take meds for it sometimes it would be worth talking to a dr about for sure

Thanks for responding to me I have been like this forever and I really have no friends because I am like this...I live in the mountains and I used to self medicate and I can be talking to someone and be fine and supportive and empathetic if they are not having a bad time then I just get really excited
Dude… you’re in my head though lol. And if the other person is down or depressed it doesn’t just rub off it seeds Inside. Trip dude

I am sorry if offended you
Some people are good with words and some ppl............
I am not eloquent enough to say something so profound
I’m sure you didn’t offend Meg, or anyone else. It’s all good brother. Just share what’s on your mind. Nobody here is judging your every word. We are all just trying to stay sober and support one another

Hey Bradley, how are you feeling today? Still energized? I do understand. It isn’t easy, is it? I’m glad your not self-medicating anymore, my friend. Isn’t it great we have this site and other social media sites now? Do you draw or do anything artistic, write maybe?

I feel very down and I didn't sleep until 8am and woke up at 11am feeling sorry for myself. I know exactly what to do and what not to do but I have a hard time paying attention to what I know I need to be doing and I am trying to meditate and journal and use cbt but I am down on myself and I am just not able to focus
Cognitive behavior therapy not cbd
I bet you are pretty embarrassed
