I'm sorry to hear. Take care of yourself and know this will pass and is only temporary.

Still having difficulty, but was able to focus a bit this morning. I went to the cemetery and put a flag on my dad’s grave. He spent 20 years in the Navy.
I'm glad you were able to do that.

I have a psychiatrist and just started today with a new therapist.

It’s like someone put my brain in a blender, pushed purée, then took the top off and all the pieces are going everywhere. Please keep me in your thoughts or prayers.
Hey, Mary. I happen to be Bipolar 1 myself and have been hospitalized numerous times, mostly for mania. I hope your circumstances are looking up. If you're ever looking for online support, I moderate the largest bipolar support group on Facebook (about 60,000 people). If interested, I can send you a link. Or just drop the name here.

It's ok if you want to share the name of your group, TM. Sounds like you're providing a pretty valuable service.
