Yesterday afternoon I wanted to start up a business…almost bought a webpage etc to sell on. But screw it I can’t do it. Today starts again and I want to sell on eBay
I want to make a podcast. I think I’m manic also
What stops you from selling stuff on eBay? You can make money that way.
it sounds boring and i don’t have the energy, almost like i want to make all the plans to but cant //… plus it is expensive to buy so many clothes to sell…
I know what you mean, you have to go by guidelines and stuff. Sounds too complicated, but I know people that do sell on eBay. I tried creating an Etsy for my artwork,but a day later I shut it down because I was afraid I was going to get in trouble from making a mistake on the measurements,weights, still pretty happy I tried accomplishing it though. I get those thoughts all the time, not following through on things. I change my mind every day when it comes to goals
Only thing I’ve stuck with are exercise and eating healthy
Good on you @Winterblues
It doesn’t sound like mania. Did you ever have a typical manic episode?
When I get manic I tend to start a lot of new projects. Everything becomes interesting to me all of a sudden and my creativity surges. I get into all sorts of creative things, like starting novels that I will never actually finish writing. That’s been my experience.
In all honesty I do not even know if I have bipolar…
I know that I find it incredibly hard to make decisions, i can feel very anxious many times, a few weeks back I found getting out of bed and going to work hard because my concentration was so bad… that might have been depression but did I ever have mania? i dont know. But I know when I had psychosis something definately was up just not sure what
Ish, I have sza w bpd. I only have hypomania and depression.
that was also my previous dx before they remvoed the sza part… still dont know if I had mania…
I didn’t know I was manic, I didn’t do risky things, so it wasn’t like I could look back and say, that was out of line. Then mania stuck with me, I think I’m in an episode now the past couple of months, but its not like creating and creating. At first it was a little euphoria then it started to really mess with me and it’s like I can’t focus on anything when it comes to attention. My pdoc says I get manic and depressed episodes, I kind of see it and I am on a mood stabilizer as well. I say trust your doctor’s judgement. If anything, for me I got more motivation on a mood stabilizer. It’s nothing to brag about what I got motivated to do but it was, make coffee at home every morning, clean when things get untidy, and focus enough to do art at least 2 times a week.
I have schizophrenia and bpd. May I ask if you ever married? I can’t seem to form lasting relationships ever in my life
I have sza with bipolar, ptsd, and gad w agoraphobia. I was not diagnosed until years after my divorce. I have been in both platonic and romantic relationships since the diagnosis. It’s not easy, but worth it.
