in need of some advice, desperate
as everyone knows i was diagnosed bipolar. I have been able to handle it...decently i should say.untill lately. I am losing control of how i handle my emotions, I am constantly feeling run down, and depressed and frustrated. I have all these plus more, emotions built up inside me at once. I consulted my psychologist about this and he increased my meds for making me sleep better, he thinks i need more sleep. But I know different, I find it hard to carry out my days with my two year old, the simpleist tasks seem impossible, and every little thing seems to trigger my temper or anxiouty or whatever feeling that pops up, im never sure of what i will feel. My feelings constantly change and during the day I tear up for no reason. What Should i do? It is getting in the way of my little girl and i, and my inlaws whom im currently living with for 4 weeks, untill we move.
My inlaws are getting severly frustrated with me but my emotions and everything are out of control. Excersize does nothing but makes it worse, breathing in a bag, the same.Nothing seems to make it better.My husband is currently over seas but he is coming home soon. I should be super happy and content knowing that but yet my world seems dark and never ending.
I have *high moments* where i feel immortal and then i drink too much or else i just go and do immature things. I dont feel normal or like myself...
Help.

It sounds like you are under a lot of stress that could be compounding your bipolar symptoms. I don't know how long ago your dr. increased your meds, but if it's been more than a week, I'd call back and explain what you just told us.

i contacted him and told him and his advice was, everyone in life has stress, deal with it. Hes saying hes changing his diagnoses to just overly stressed when i dont have that much stress on me, and i have anxouty attacks now and its getting hard to just get out of bed in the mornings.
