Which bipolar Symptoms are the hardest for you to handle?

Honestly, the hardest part for me is the constant mood swings. One minute, I’m on top of the world, feeling invincible and making impulsive decisions that I later regret. And then, out of nowhere, it flips, and I’m stuck in this deep, dark place where even getting out of bed feels impossible. It’s like I’m on this emotional rollercoaster with no way to get off.

The depressive episodes are the worst for me. The weight of everything just feels suffocating, and I struggle to even care about things that usually matter. It’s like I’m trapped inside my own head, and nothing seems worth it. And it’s so exhausting—feeling like I’m stuck in a constant battle between feeling too much and feeling nothing at all.

Another thing I struggle with is the lack of sleep. When I’m manic, I’ll go for days without rest, just running on pure adrenaline. I think I’m fine at first, but it catches up to me fast. I crash hard, and that just feeds into the depressive mood when my body can’t keep up anymore.

Anyone else feel like they’re just getting tossed around by their own emotions all the time?
