Did it happen to you?

Hello, I'm in my early 40ies. Few years ago I have been diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder. Well, now, for some people I'm creazy, for some I'm a genius.

For the last years I struggled to find a way to free myself from the 9-5 job.

So finally I found a way which will make me a lot of money. I just have to take action. It's just there, I just have to take it. Here's come the problem.

Instead of taking action I waste my day thinking all possible ways to take revenge on all people that turned me down. Because I know that as soon as I make money I'll have my revenge.

I know it's wrong wanting to take revenge, but still what I'm going to do, that will allow me to make money and live free, will hit them back as karma, even if I don't do anything against them.

So the problem is my mind think about all these revenges, I loose concentration, and it creates inside my mind and body a sense of restlessness. Not anxiety or depression, just I lose focus.

And so I'm sucked in this spiral which doesn't allow me to reach my goal and get my money. And I spend the day in bed and on the sofa. And I procrastinate with the mobile on the web.

Listening to songs also is negative for me because the lyrics trigger me the sense of revenge. So i stopped to listen to song, I listen to calming and meditating music, but still my mind goes to that revenge thinking, and then I procrastinate instead of taking action to reach my goal that is very near now, so near now, that is frustrating.

Did this happen to you? How did you solve it?

Imagine waking up one day and realizing that you are in mid forties, have a mediocre job, 9 dependents, breathtaking communication impairments and an incurable personality disorder to live with.

This is how my every day begins.

How did I cope?
Technically, with the support of my loved ones. I do have an extremely negative side and alarmingly bad anger issues (courtesy of the personality disorder). And I do procrastinate as if I am Odin. I just try to listen more to whatever the next person is trying to tell me. I take deep breaths for 30 seconds whenever I feel like flipping. And I feel like nothing is working, I find the next person around me and try to help him/her with whatever I can. And the day passes.

Then comes the night.....

May this help you get through such darkness and being aware of being alone.

Yes.
For years.
Then I became revenge!

Being successful at being ME is the ultimate revenge on those who wanted me to suffer and grieve.

No. My ex wife hated me for leaving her I just got about my business and left that nonsense behind. Sure she has impacted my life I'd love to see my kids they are adults now but they are afraid to contact me as it upsets her and she has a temper.
TL;DR Make your money, revenge will take care of itself.
PS let me know how to make the money I could always use extra.
