[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 126140, member: 1514"] Well....you probably dont want to hear this but...your boyfriend is right! You need to take care of you first. I am not very good at it either. Now Im pretty much disabled. Ok...not pretty much...I [B]am[/B] disabled. You say people say you exhibit your youngest childs symptoms...it could well be that you share common genes and some common diagnosis that you havent explored yet. I didnt get my bipolar diagnosis until my youngest son was diagnosed with it. Until then I really didnt understand bipolar and I surely wasnt going to go in and tell some stranger some of the more "crazy" things I had done. That scared me too badly. Shame too because it just denied me help for many years. I was also in my late 30s when I got diagnosed. It was the best thing I ever did for both myself and my family. Please...if you are feeling overwhelmed then talk to a doctor. medications can help so much. They dont have to cloud your mind. They can help you deal with everything in a much better frame of mind.
