Suddenly having bipolar 1 disorder at age 33. Then the terrible aftermath of mania. I ca't deal with all the things I did.

I was diagnosed at 47, 8 months ago
But looking back I've always had it, was just never as manic as I was from May to Dec last year
Yep I destroyed everything, my family and am now in financial ruin
Bipolar is horrid

[Blueman]

[crybaby]

1.ugly face
2.depression
3.money

Spoiler: :(

My depression originated when my classmates laughed at my ugly face. People hate me, and I hate myself too.I almost don't have enough money to live but I don't want to go out to work because I am afraid that others will see my ugly face. If i have a pretty face, I don't have to go through 2, and I believe I can overcome and solve 3

 

[Pointlesslife]

BPD, bipolar, PTSD, anxiety, being incompetent (things I don't know that I feel like I should know), difficulty articulating myself verbally sometimes, bad short term memory, processing issues (not always understanding what people are saying)

Some of that sounds like me.

 

[Squiddy]

Some of that sounds like me.

Which ones sound like you?

 

[catalepsy]

Narcissistic people. Narcissistic governments. Karens. Wage slavery. Broken, schizoid interpersonal skills. The long road through childhood and the broken mess it left behind.

 

[Shadowrider]

An abusive, sadistic and tyrannical mother.
A rejecting father who is so ashamed of my existence that he keeps it in a secret.
Traumas from school bullying - and shame for having flashbacks about them, after so many years.
(At high school, I was happy for being "just" ostracized.)
An extremely low self-esteem and confidence that keeps saying no wonder I never succeed in anything.
I was not allowed to study what I could be good at. I had to be thankful for having gotten the chance for something that had _a little_ resemblance to my original plans and interests. (No, I didn't have any grandiose dreams. I just wanted a normal occupation I liked.)
I would probably qualify for avoidant personality disorder. It makes my life very difficult and impossible to live normally. I am always hypervigilant, stressed and expect rejection, being ridiculed, belittled, criticized or back-stabbed - from any possible direction, and for any possible or impossible reason.
I have a stubborn set of maladaptive coping mechanisms that keeps me from falling apart - but it also makes me dysfunctional in most situations.

Severe treatment resistant anxiety, depression, autism spectrum disorder, insomnia, and suffering.

[Polly1]

That could not be brief.

 

[nolongerhuman]

- Horrid anxiety. Anxiety that manifests as severe, almost physical pain from the moment I wake up from the moment I go to sleep, nearly every day, for seven years and it doesn't seem to be stopping anytime soon. Appears to be triggered by specific things on the surface but as soon as I'm done being upset about whatever I was upset about yesterday, my shitty mentally ill brain will come up with something new for me to be upset about. Resistant to CBT therapy because believe it or not, knowing the bad feeling is irrational doesn't actually make the bad feeling go away. Resistant to medications. It's been slowly driving me insane.
- My subconscious is still convinced that the deity of the religion I was raised in definitely exists and desperately wants it to love me despite the tenants of the religion making that impossible. This fucks with my head in ways I cannot possibly describe to you.
- The ostracization I've experienced from general society from childhood that's directly traceable to my ASD doesn't help.
