In Need of Bipolar Friends and People to Relate To
Posted: 10-16-07 20:48pm

im friendless lonely and sick of having a style of no style. it seems my crys for attention my cry out for friends always fail. i just want someone who i can talk to someone that i can relate to. ive put a barrier up to keep from hurting others emotionally and to keep myself from being hurt. i really dont trust, depend, or keep people close. due to the fact no matter what no one can be me. not really open to advice. i feel so empty so lost and confused. i want someone that i can talk to on a day to day basis someone that will listen and not judge me, just to understand. im tired of seeing and hearing you cant blame that on bpd. "we" dont use it as a crutch or excuse. its simply the way things are and it IS the reason why it happens that way. ive seen so many people be a critic and just so judgemental. everyone is different i realize that. the hard part is a lot of others say just because you have bpd you cant do that. would you expect someone with autism to just snap out of it? or someone with another disease/disorder to be able to do what they can not. the only thing ive seen here lately is about bf/gf husband and wife with bpd. then saying how they do things and blame it on bpd or why you shouldnt be with someone that has bpd. its offensive, deeply especially when maybe more than half are misdiagnosed read about it and become what they read. then the comparison how they have bpd or know someone that does and make it sound like its something so easily lived with. it definitly is not. more than likely if you have bpd youve got more problems mentally... personality disorders anxiety to ocd. im just upset because we're suppose to be here for support and so on but i havent had one person contact me on aol instant messanger. so what is the point, why come to the table when you bring nothing....

i just want to have bp friends and just friends in general and im still waiting on AIM for a response

Hey give it some time---people sometimes take awhile to come and check here. Id suggest that you talk it up here and make some friends--pretty soon they will come to you. dont give up hope. things will get better.

Hi, try responding to some of the other individuals with a diagnosis of b.p. on this forum. You sound like a very smart person and could probably help out alot of people, and in turn begin to develop a relationship with someone and share your writings.

There is one small board called Wing of Madness. Very supportive. CHeck it out. Then of course DBSA, but I don't care for it as much.

im 18 years old and was diagnosed when i was 14. It was a genetic thing. I found it hard, I wanted to be illness free, so to speak. For me acceptance was the key, i opened up, expressed how i felt. Not telling every single person of my condition but it pass on it, was open. I've never met anymore apart from my grandma who has it.

If You Would Like to Talk...i'm Here

I dont have AIM but if you need to talk to someone, I'm here.

Just from reading some of the things you wrote I think we could have some things in common.

If you would like to talk, just let me know.
