Comment on Teenage Anxiety, Update on My Daughter by Shauna

Aww thank you sweetie. It is frustrating and it amazes me how many doctors seem to know less about bipolar than I do. I have worked hard to learn which enabled me to take care of my daughter as well as get myself stabilized. (as much as you can) so they also need to listen to us but they are so busy trying to get you through and out of the office these days. I miss our old doctor he really is a super doctor. Thanks for your prayers they are very much appreciated.

I’m so sorry Shauna that she is experiencing this, bipolar is no joke and it pisses me off that some doctors don’t take it serious enough. Sometimes in the world of medicine money should not be a factor in giving the appropriate assistance to those who may need extra help or care. I will keep her in prayer as with you also.

Comment on Bipolar Disorder, It is NOT Who you are by Shauna

Amen!! I know exactly what you mean but you are also right you are surrounded by people who push you.. I find we all are until we come to that realization and get rid of them.. I have even had to walk away from my parents at different times in my life to get well myself. then after years of separation allow them back in but keep them distanced and when they come to me for emotional support I try not to take on the problems that are not mine. When i catch myself taking it on, I will distance my self for days or weeks till I can let it go and then I pay closer attention next time I find myself taking on what isn’t mine. I have a hard time just listening, I want to fix it… I am a caretaker at heart but I cannot take on everything for everyone..

The ones that take the time to learn and understand your illness will recognize when they are pushing too hard and back off. It takes years of self discipline but its is something we have to do for our sanity.. Remember You are NOT your illness, there is so much more to you, so much more beautiful loving human being.. love to you

What makes it more difficult, for me, is when those so-called loved ones can’t listen. I’ve told them time and again, don’t corner me and if I walk away, let me go. I’ve also asked them not to put their burdens on me. I’ll listen to the cows come home, but don’t make your problems, my problems.

Maybe I’m just surrounded by enablers and button pushers living to goad me and push me beyond my limits. They can’t seem to realize that some days, sometimes weeks at a time, I struggle to breathe. Other times it can be a struggle to relax and center myself. it’s hard not to let the disease control me, but I fight it daily, and fighting with the people in my life takes away from the energy I need to live beyond my bipolar label.

People think that because I’m not hurting physically that it’s not so bad/hard. I’d like to see them spend five minutes in my shoes. Only then will those around us truly understand the struggles we face.

I have been stalking the hob mother throughout the forest hoping to catch a glimpse. I am only finding broken twigs and crushed leaves on an ever vanishing trail. I hope one day to see the Hob mother in the land of Madness.
