I have been reading this chat for a while. Today I need encouragement. My mom(83) died suddenly on Monday morning. I am working hard to stablize after a 9 week bout of hypomania and mania. I have been to my therapist and my med dr. and following their instructions. I tend to cut when things get tough and I really don't want to go there. Cutting takes the pain into the physical. I know that it is not the way to cope, anyone have any other suggestions?

Mom's die suddenly sometimes when they are 83. It is okay to be sad. You will miss her.

You are doing EXACTLY the correct thing in following your therapist and doc instructions. It indicates you are stabilizing. And in a difficult time.

I applaud you.

Don't cut yourself. Pain is difficult whether mental or physical, please don't add to it.

Keep in touch

Sorry for your loss. Try to honor and remember your mother by not harming yourself. She would be heartbroken. Hang in there>
