Hang in there, things will work out I promise you! Things can look very helpless at times, but if you just work hard at solving these issues one at a time I am sure you will be fine.
Use your husband's love as a form of support to help you get through this difficult time, however you will have to find that strength inside you, and not have to rely on someone else in order to give you the will to go on. You must want that from within.
I definately recommend for you to go and talk to a psychologist, not a psychiatrist. Psychiatrists will want to put you on anti-depressant medication, however the best way to work things out is to talk things out and find solutions, rather than use medication as a crutch. Then you'll have the side effects to live with as well.
I'm no doctor, but I'm sure you don't have bi-polar. There are so many different things that can have symptoms that seem similar to what you feel. There's no harm in getting checked out by a doctor, but I'm sure that is not what it is.
I'm sure there are a lot of issues that run so deep that you don't even know why you're crying some times, however I'm also sure that what happened with your inlaws and whatever other demons you may have inside could be the reason why you're feeling so bad, and hopefully this can be solved by counciling.
Please don't give up, go see a psychologist, and if they feel you need to see a psychiatrist, then go for it. And don't think of it as being weak, it takes a STRONG woman to admit that she needs help, and even stronger of a woman to actually go out and ask for it.
Good luck, god bless, and I hope everything works out for you! I will say a prayer for you tonight!

It does sound like bipolar disorder but mostly just plain old depression.I'm diagnosed with these things and go through some days just drained and my emotions fluctuate between anger and calmness and I change in a second from one to another.I take heavy medication which keeps me from low energy and those thoughts that I can't handle life anymore.I take Risperdal and Lexapro.I still have suicidal thoughts once in a while but not as intense and not as long.I've found that the wisdom that our god,the Creator,loves me is another way to pull out of depressed thoughts.Talking to Him as if He was sitting on the sofa with me and my knowledge that He understands me and can literally feel my pain helps.My husband holds me up as yours does.He is actually the one who noticed my symptoms before I did and took me to the doctor.Go ahead and ask your husband to understand and go to the doctor sweetie.I'm sure he would'nt mind.You need some meds a.s.a.p.
They make everything all sparkly and less of an effort and level out the chemical imbalance in the brain.Another thing hon....sounds like you need to get away from living with the in-laws,that could be some of your problem.A persons environment can really add unnecessary b.s to your head.So hold your heart and best judgement over those emotions and realize you are someone that deserves to live.If your questioning death then maybe seek the giver of LIFE in your spiritual places.He's cool and won't judge you.Good luck.Smile.

First of all - it doesn't sound like Bipolarism. If you were bipolar - you would have noticed a manic episode by now (not sleeping, anger, euphoria, spending too much, driving too fast, talking to fast, thoughts racing). You really sound like to me you are just
genuinely DEPRESSED. For this - you need to go see your medical doctor and ask for an antidepressant. Then if that doesn't work - go see a mental health professional.
As far as in-laws living with you - you need to set some ground rules - after all this is your and your husband's house - not theirs.
You deserve to live your life without thoughts of suicide and happier. If you get help - you will benefit, but also your husband will benefit from this.
Lastly - your hormone supplements could definitely be affecting your moods - again - just go see your regular medical doc and tell him everything you have told us, and see if he will give you an antidepressant or adjust your hormone supplement. Good Luck!

temper swings are commonly used for many individuals. A bipolar guy or woman is going back and forth between 2 severe extremes. there is deep melancholy, the place they are able to't seem to get something finished, and may even experience suicidal. and there is wild exhilaration, the place they are able to stay wide awake for days on end, and do remarkable innovative artwork, yet are in possibility of risky habit alongside with spending all their money and having loopy sexual encounters. There are drugs that can average those polar extremes. a lot of human beings laid low with this disease who take those drugs say they pass over the incredible "ups", yet comprehend that they might ought to pay for them with the insufferable "downs". right this is an extremely readable e book approximately bipolar disease by utilising an author who's hardship-free with of approximately it first-hand: An Unquiet suggestions: A Memoir of Moods and insanity by utilising Kay Redfield Jamison.

I have a freind that has bipolar. Yes once in a while she will think of suicide. But it is also more than that, she has trouble focusing on things and is never just comfortable. She gets very paranoid about things and always thinks that someting is wrong with her. She is a great person but she just has a lot to deal with. If you have s friend that you can talk to about this that would be a good idea, what her and I do is if she is feeling that way she will just let me know by telling me that I need to watch her for a while. This just means a couple extra phone calls and I love yous and before you know it she is ok for a while. I hope this will help a little thanks

really what do you have to lose - if you are, then you know --- if you aren't, then the anxiety is gone
If you are, there are many of us out here willing to answer your questions and help with advice. A mental illness does not mean life is over, just different. I lead a normal life, have a child and have been married. That seems pretty normal to me, the only difference is I take medication daily and check in with a doctor every once in a while.
good luck

I suggest you go see that doctor. Every body has lows and highs in life. Some of us need a little help with every day issues in life. There is nothing wrong with that.It sounds like you my have a hormone in balance. Sometimes fertility drugs reject the body. There are all kinds of fertility drugs maybe, you need to be put on a different one. Best of luck to you. But go see the doctor.

I don't believe anyone on the internet can accurately diagnose your problem. Talk to your doctor. Hormone therapy can alter your mood, but if you have any suicidal thoughts a doctor needs to be aware of that so he or she can evaluate you better. Your life is obviously stressful; I hope you have a friend to kick back with. But friends can't treat medical problems. Please find a doctor who can help you. God Bless.

I doesn't matter if you're bipolar or not. Go see a therapist, doctor, or any other professional that you think could help you. A study on sanity says that one in four people have some form of mental illness. Look at three of your friends. If they are okay, it's probably you.
