What works for me is talking to my love from mexico, reading, and a lot ot outbursts I have had because of my anxiety and bipolar disorder. Was also diagnose with personality affective disorder. I also journal... Feels like everyone wants me to leave because I was off meds for a while, I try to cope the best way, but I can not. I hear things, specially and i know they are not real. It is hard when you are blind and in a facility where they do not care about whether you are having a bad day.. If I am disruptive to the other residents, I have to stop that and the guy said control your bipolar quick... He also stated that when I was crying in his office "Well I was off meds for a logn time and my bipolar got real bad... I have this elevator feeling .. I don't know what that is, what ever.. Anyway so as he tellls me to control my bipolar quick I just started taking meds again, now I take three times a day with seroquel(quitiapine... three times and 0.5 mg of xanax... *sigh* I just need someone to talk to on the phone more. I do a lot of non coping because I am afraid... :(
