I am really struggling

[notevenamousie]

Have a 2.5 dd, lone parent, bipolar disorder. I feel really terrible. Don't have many local friends, one of them asked me if I was fit to be a mother the last time I talked to her.

I think if it keeps feeling this bad I might ring the samaritans this afternoon, which I've never done before, whilst my daughter has a nap. I am really, really struggling and I don't know what to do.

Well done neam...you are doing really well because you are well aware of how you are feeling, you ahve shared it with others, sought medicael advice and you are taking action. You have done it all for your daugther and yourself. You have not let it to what you would do if you had any other illness that "flared up"...eg if you had diabetes you would monitor yourself and then take steps tp sort if you fall out of the range. You have done everything you can for yourself...well done again. ..wishing you a speedy recovery
