Unable to take a break

Postby thatGIRL1484 » Wed Dec 12, 2012 7:27 pm

Sometimes I think it is good that I have so much to do and so many responsibilities because it keeps me going, but when I need a break I am not able to take one. I have 2 young children and so I can't just check into the hospital knowing they need someone their to take them to and from school and all of that. But sometimes I just want to lay down and give up. Am I the only one forced to go on when they dont want to?
You say I'm always happy & I'm good at what I do, but what you'll never realize is I'm a Damn good actress too.

Dx: Bipolar II, Generalized Anxiety, Panic Disorder

Tx: Lithium, Seroquel, Buspar, Gabapentin, Lamictal

Nah, you aren't alone. I have to keep going on. Sometimes all I want to do is sleep for days but the people involved in my life also have expectations and needs. You never want to let anyone down of course and you want to do your best for your loved ones. Sometimes though, you just need a break.
