My boyfriend has Bi-Polar Disorder.
He has his highs & lows. One extreme to another.
Does anyone have a relative, friend or partner with this condition?

I know probably not many of you will want to answer a touchy subject like this but would really appreciate your thoughts/advice on it. My mum abused me (mentally & physically) when i was younger..the physical part stopped when I was about 14 but the mental part is still going on. I still live at home 'cos of study but i work part time and the money usually goes towards car payment & just general uni life costs. So moving out right now isn't an option. I can't really talk to her because she doesn't speak much english at all & I can't speak my native language very well either..well, not well enough to talk about this. She is very manipulative/angry etc and sometimes I catch myself thinking/acting like her. It scares me.Because what if i haf kids oneday. What really hurts me is that she thinks she hasn't done any wrong. Every now & again i'll haf nitemares about her hurting me N i'll wake up in tears. It pisses me off that she still has a hold of me.

How can I approach my family and admit to my addiction to crack/cocaine? I'm so afraid that I will disappoint them and that they will be angry with me. But it's time that I come (and become) clean and I need their help. Any advice or experiences??

Now im not trying to be an asshole guy who fights people for no reason.

Im 17 right now and i know that teenage drama is dumb and pointless crap. but for some reason i keep falling into certain situations that dont necessaraly need fighting but some sort of assertion.

one example is my 26 year old sisters husband is a drug addict. he constantly stole from my family. he ruined my sister's plans for a real life and left her a single mother with 2 kids. he is now in rehab and she finally left him. this all happend within a 3 year period.

i watched it happen but i had some sort of mental block that didnt let me do anything. i tried to but i just couldnt. when i was younger i was more straight forward but now i dont know. i find myself in tough situations like these ALOTE.

it makes me feel a rage inside and makes me snap harder for smaller things.

is this some sort of mental block.
can someone explain what i should do.
if i should just start punching or what should i do??

She went on and on about her bi-polar disorder and gave lots of other excuses, but I'm sure she could have gotten attention from lots of other men who were not her husband, I'm sure she would have had plenty of opportunities to have an affair if she wanted, but there HAS TO BE something else behind why she chose to carry on with a *14 yr old* student.

I know that she herself said she should be in jail and she accepts responsibilty, but there have been many, many women who were also raped or sexually assaulted when they were young, and while they may become promiscuous I haven't heard of them preying on children.
Has anyone investigated this particular angle about her?

And how do you deal with it? I get depressed about humaity once in a while.

My last situation was when a doctor treated me rudely with arrogance just because I had a common medical problem, but not common to me, and I needed answers. This person wasn't the first I experienced, and I've heard others including my wife complain about some rude doctors.

I felt dissapointed because I thought doctors were suppose to be mature, empathetic, as well as smart in their field. In society, they're usually considered very important and intelligent. For some reason, I thought maturity and humbleness was apart of that. I was wrong. I felt irritated for weeks worrying about how I'm suppose to trust doctors when many don't care and will not inform you, and many times leave you in the dark. I felt trapped and decieved by what I thought doctors were usually suppose to be like.

But thats just my last situation. I want to read what some of YOUR reasons for depression are? Just wondering.

A research study was conducted among a large group of people; all ages, all levels of education, ect. based on the following. The results were surprising...

What is better than God?
What is worse than the Devil?
The Poor have it.
The Rich need it.

WHAT IS IT?

A class of Kindergateners answered seconds after given the description and they had the right answer. I tested it out on my kids... 7 yrs & 11 yrs. My 11 year old is above average in school, my 7 yr old is more "creative" (the slacker). I could NOT believe it when my 7 yr old had the answer almost emmediately... My 11 yr old thought about it for a minute and came up with the answer.

Until the 7yr old said the answer I was still stumped, but it made since once I heard it.

The study concluded that adults try to analylize things and actually make things harder than they really are.

How long did it take you to come up with the answer? Are you surprised by the conclusion?

This past week has been a complete roller coaster ride. I've been crying about everything. My job has become extremely stressful because my boss is incapable of communicating with me. My best friend canceled two days before my bridal shower leaving me to throw it myself, and to boot.. my grandma is in the hospital with a bad kidney & stints in her heart. I don't know what to do. I'm getting upset with life it seems. Any advice on what to do would be greatly appreciated.
