They’ve been brainwashed to thinking covid is a hoax… they also believe the election will be overturned. It’s just plain crazy

Last ditch effort I guess,

As far as COVID concerns.

Thanks @Dazercat

Being bipolar hurts so much :disappointed_relieved: It feels worse because I can see the damage I am doing to the people around me. As you said, I feel so relieved that the new meds are working. I plan to get it right this time. I have to. I do not have a choice.

I hope you get the support from your family since this is an illness. My son said he finally got tired of waking up in strange hospitals in lock down. He will always take his meds now. He didn’t have PTSD. But he did drink and drug and party a lot through college. And Basically he felt good and didn’t think he needed his meds anymore. Stopped them twice.
We struggled a few years.

Fast forward.
He’s six years sober now. As a matter of fact he just got his license to practice family and marriage therapy in Texas. You CAN have a bright future. Miracles do happen.
:pray::heart:

For real, I knew this was gonna be a shit show. They haven’t called us. And I’m kinda grateful. If the fed cant get a grip on it, reinforcements with less authority will be useless

Idk have a good day
