I Want Someone Who'll Stay, No Matter How Complicated I Am

I sometimes don't know the person I am. I can be this perky, positive person who makes you laugh and will always be able to find a silver lining in every cloud... and then I can be this lump of miserable, self-pitying blahness walking around on two legs.

I think that makes me difficult to handle. I am unpredictable. I sometimes don't want to talk to people, yet I feel upset when there's no one around.

The fluctuations between the two wears me out.

Are you bipolar? I'm like that and I'm bipolar.

I don't know.. but there are periods where I'm completely okay which makes me think I'm just going through a rough patch.

Maybe, but if it's happening in a pattern, it might be a good idea to see a therapist. I thought that was the case with me, but it turned out I needed meds to even out those rough patches. And I don't mind being on meds, I feel more like me, but with less ups and downs.

@PeanutsauntieP1982: I will if I feel like it isn't getting any better.. a friend had also just advised me to do the same, so I've been thinking about it.

Good! I'm glad to hear that! I know life got much better after my diagnosis and meds.
