Even if there was such a club, I think most of the sufferers would be too socially inhibitted to attend any meetings. Sad, isn't it? :P

That life is suffering and the way out of that suffering is through Buddha and meditation? Heh...

Been there, done that, then I went clearly manic. Ha, who knew I'd be in the 1-2% that really do have bipolar. Many months later after many different meds, the right ones ended the hypomania/mixed state which stopped the horrible agitation and anxiety and racing thoughts that caused confusion and fear. So, life is better now. I guess that's a success story. ?

Sweetie, Having read your words, I say that she'd be delighted to receive a letter from you. Although I know that this is just a superficial impression because I only know this through your three paragraphs, but I believe that you're a very thoughtful, sensitive, and reflective person. These are rare qualities that people treasure in friends and they couldn't be faked or mimicked. And you've got them. You're not alone in the world in feeling how you feel. You're 18 now and from what you've written, I know you've been through a lot and you haven't found the support you deserve. But keep your chin up because just think, you're 18, and you've got your whole life ahead of you. Keep this in mind before you think about serious decisions like suicide. I'm 24 right now and speaking from hindsight, I can tell you that had I taken my own life when I was your age, I would've regretted it. And if you'd ask me if I could, would I turn back the clock and become an 18 year-old again (or to pick any age I want), I definitely wouldn't do it, I hated high school, not so much because of anybody who was mean to me or anything but because of the loneliness I felt. Although I've only got a few years on you, I can tell you that there were definitely times growing up and in high school when I felt completely alone in the world and with no one to really talk to. Not idle chatter but someone who really understood me and relate viscerally to me when I poured out my soul. As I look back I think, I felt this way yet on the outside, I was well liked and it seemed like I had a bunch of friends. I felt like the problem was me. But then I realized that perhaps it wasn't, because when I got to my senior year in college, I found friends who really, really understood me. And who would stay up with me till four in the morning to help me revise a paper due the same morning, despite having their own classes to go to in the morning. I consider that real friendship, and just think, it took me 22 years so it may take a little longer or shorter for you, so don't fret. Write that letter from your heart and send it off. I wish you all the best. Tina

I suggest reading about the 4 noble truths, Zenbull.
*added*
I just brought it up because of the name. :)
Anyway, its more like the end of suffering is through mindfullness and ending desire, which is the teachings of the Buddha.
I am not a Buddhist, I just studied it as a philosophy

yup yup...same but I don't really feel depress unless something bad happen just like what I'm in now....
Satan is using these people in my class to drive me outta there and I hate to admit it but he's succeeding...I'm about to drop the class cause I don't want to deal with those girls who gives me nasty stare all the time and having people against me just cause I brokedown into tears and confided to them and the teacher that I have anxiety disorder that makes me panic and I have no control of them...Just make things worse...So next time hopefully I learned my lesson and just go to the bathroom when I am feeling I'm gna cry or soemthing...

Alas, the human condition, especially in the American society and culture-as it does not nurture connection between people over money, materialism, power trips, etc.
Just imagine if you were sick and homeless, then how would you feel?
