Have any of you successfully managed bipolar, full time work and two young (6 and 4) kids?
I have bipolar. I've always had it but I'm recently diagnosed after a huge manic spell followed by suicide attempt.
I haven't worked full time since my second child was born (and I only have an 18 month age gap). I'm considering going back. I feel bored and if I don't use my qualification soon it will seem out of date and I won't get a job. I'm already bordering on this.
There really aren't PT jobs in my field.
Am I lacking self confidence or am I setting myself up to fail?
