Can I ask the Bi polar folk a question please?

Currently I am feeling what I would class as 'normal' - not feeling hopeless, coping on a day to day basis. Prior to this, for a week or so I was 'buzzy' - happy, singing, couldn't sit still for too long, and before that I was quite 'down' - flat, just about dealing with 'stuff'.

Does this sound like Bi polar?

My biggest problem is that I am adopted, and I know my Birth Mother has to take daily medication (because she told me in a letter written from Australia, so no chance of a meet up and I've been told she doesn't want any more contact), so naturally, at the back of my head is 'what is this condition she has and is it hereditary?'...

I feel sick.

I've found out that my flatmate and friend of 18 years has been bad mouthing and making fun of me on facebook and is even too ashamed to admit to going shopping etc with me by saying when we have been out, she has been meeting girlfriends.

Over the past couple of years since joining Facebook, she has done less and less with me, often citing illness just so she can stay all day on facebook. She has met a guy on there who is the lowest of the low - racist, abusive, accuses her of as many disabilities as he can, tries to break up her friendships and as proven more times than not, a complete liar, but she claims to be in love with him. He makes fun of her all the time and she just takes it. She gets upset and expects me to be her shoulder to cry on and all this time she's been making fun of me with the person I have to listen to her about.

Not only do I feel stupid, but i've lost my friend of 18 years. I'll never trust her again. Despite her many faults, I never had her down as someone who'd belittle me behind my back.

She's the sort of person that will deny something even with all the evidence in front of her and try and shift the blame and change the subject by exaggerating something someone else is meant to have done, so I expect nothing but it all being my fault somehow in her eyes.

I am so angry right now, I just don't know what to do. I've been feeling low of late and this on top depresses me even more!

Hi miro!
Just when you thought it was safe to get back on the thread!
It's nice to see you again, angel. How the heck are you? I hope all is well with you.

Sorry to read about you feeling a bit low with regards to the gym. They may have a point, hunnie - breathing is very important to everyone and causing it to stop by too much exercise is not very healthy or very MSE either, if it means you end up spending money on a subscription deal that you won't be around to use! Have you asked them if you can see what is written on the post it note? You might try throwing the 'Freedom of Information Act' at them but that may be a case of slightly over-reacting. Seriously though, it probably says something along the lines of, ''Please make sure that miro doesn't overdo the cardiovascular stuff as he is very determined to workout to the maxmum that he can and doesn't always know when to take a break.'' It sounds like they do have your best interests at heart, angel though I can understand your frustration.

Well, there's so much that has been going on in the world over the past year - the royal wedding anniversary (sazzy and badgie!), the other royal wedding (), you finding a nice romantic interest (guess it's just me and the cats' retirement home now!) - and britney resurrecting her career!
I hope cats and flat mate are all well (in that order!) and that you are taking care of yourself.
Don't be a stranger, angel - keep us posted with your news. I hope to be back later to sort our missus sazzy out - - and to say hello to our new poster.

Be kind to yourself.

Much Love,
Tiff xxx

:wave: Tiff

I'm not too bad thanks, at least my post above aside

How are you and what have you been up to? :cool:

I know what you mean re: the gym. I just feel patronised, but maybe they do that to everyone I'll take a peek at some stage when they aren't looking Luckily my gym is no minimum contract, so not to worry about doing myself and injury and still having to pay months of membership fees!

I'm sure I can find you a nice man down the gym. Shall I band your MSE username about and see if any of the men come here? :rotfl:

My remaining two cats are well I think At their age, I do worry, especially after losing the other three

Take care and good to see you back posting a bit more

Nice to see you again and I agree it's nice to see some familiar faces mixing with the new ones.

feeling low and tired, didnt get much sleep as i got into a programme last night to have one of my neighburs dicide to crash about early this morning.
plus been dwelling on things and niot being to sure how to deal with them? especially on the friend front as it really does bother me that i know im not perfect or tried hard enough and am beating myself up about the situation with them, as i dont know what to do. if i try to speak to them i often dont get a good response and i feel as if im in the wrong with them, theyre not, theyre minds mind up end of? i cant help but feel excluded when i see them on facebook about how theyve gone out and ejnyoyed each others company at something including birthday meals, the two who have my numbers dont call or text and the others dont bother to say hello on facebook and it down to me to do this all the time? and i get told that im ignoring them when i dont and theyre quick to point out my faults, get cagey and so on, especially if i go out with a few friends/poeple i know from work?
sorry to go on about the same old and know i need to get out a bit more and try to get new friends but it made me so wary of people, and tricky on not much money and your feeling low, and unsure of yourself and who you are?
