Im usually not in this section but I was thinking about how I have my ups and downs. I was only diagnosed with depression but I have the worst out of controlled anger problem, I throw things, not very often, Im very self destructive to my self. I just feel like a out of control crazy person. I feel like two people sometimes? I don't understand.

Anger outbursts are not uncommon with depression. It may help to talk to your doctor or therapist about this - both in terms of anger management strategies and medication.

thelostchild,
I'm sorry to hear that you are not feeling well...the news that you have bipolar disorder must be a lot to process right now. I hope that you are doing alright. It looks like maybe you already had an inclination that you were possibly bipolar since you posted in the bipolar folder? Either way I'm sure having the official diagnosis is a lot to handle.
Take care of yourself, and remember there is a lot of support and information on this forum for bipolar disorder--so I guess that is one really good tool that you already have to help you cope.

Hope you feel better!

But at the same time, they are also charming, persuasive, and attractive—making it difficult to navigate their treacherous webs. How do narcissists get this way? When trying to explain the development of the trait, current thinking tends to emphasize the roles that...

When Positive Messages Feel Bad: Why I'm Changing How I Use Social Media
When Positive Messages Feel Bad: Why I'm Changing How I Use Social Media by Ashley Dunnwald, TinyBuddha.com August 8, 2022 “How wonderful that we have met with a paradox. Now we have some hope of making progress.” ~Niels Bohr Social media is indeed a paradox in that it has the power to be both good and evil simultaneously.

On Those Hard Days When You Feel Like Nothing You Do Matters by Marie Shanley, Tiny Buddha April 4, 2021 “Just a reminder in case your mind is playing tricks on you today: You matter.

By extension, they may be more reactive to negative things in life. It is one piece of evidence to suggest that these metabolic problems are related to issues with how we perceive and deal with things that stress all of us out."

Don’t feel like going to therapy? Tell your therapist
https://metro.co.uk/2017/08/07/sometimes-youll-dread-therapy-6833162/#ixzz4pOEImUG4 By Ellen Scott, Lifestyle editor There will come a day, after months of waiting, desperate for some kind of help, that you won’t want to do therapy. This might coincide with the time you decide to stop taking your meds, out of some mixture of not feeling that they’re working anymore, the return of your self-destructive impulses, and your self-reassurance that actually you’re fine.
