Can't ANYONE get stable and STAY stable with this darn illness? I've read many posts over the months and no one actually becomes stable and stays there. Inlcuding me. Do we have anything to look forward to as far as our illness goes? Many BP's are on more than one medication and they never seem to help for very long. What's the point if nothing is going to work for more than a few weeks?? I can't speak for anyone else but I am getting very tired of the whole business. So are the people who have to interact with me on a daily basis. I am angry, anxious, or depressed mmch of the time. I am considering dumping everthing in the trash can and forgetting the whole thing if all I have to look forward to is those short periods of energy quickly followed by dark depression and these ridiculous mood swings. I feel like I am in a constant state of severe PMS! It makes it harder to bear if I am in a happy mood and I KNOW that it isn't going to last long no matter what I do or what medication I take. Like a lot of people with BP this has been going on all my life and it gets tiring. I know I am having a negative attitute but sometimes I just can't help it. Am I the only one that feels this way?
Sorry to be so angry!
