Bored with Life or Falling Back into Depression?!


Question: Bored with Life or Falling Back into Depression!?
I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder a year ago and I've been on depakote which has worked for me!. It hasn't made me zombie-like or anything!. I've just been bored with everything!. Not nearly as passionate as before!. If I was given everything I ever wanted it wouldn't change my mood!. So mayn good things have happened lately and I still don't seem to care!. It's like I'm rotting!. I don't care what happens to me but I'd never do anything to bring it about!. But compared to the depression I had it's a very good high!. I'm not sure what to do about it!.
Have you ever felt that way!?Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
Funny you should say if you were given everything you wanted, it still wouldn't change your mood!. Last week I was feeling really really low, and I thought for the first time, even if i won the lottery or had a few thousand, I still wouldn't be happy!. (The lottery usually always cheers me up)!. I've not been diagnosed with depression, but I do get it and self harm when it's bad!.

The past week, i've somehow managed to straighten my head, just by sorting out my life a bit!. Cleaning the house regularly, moving stuff about, sorting through clutter!. And I think going to the gym helped (it was only once but i did feel good after)!.

I couldn't tell you if it's symptomatic of the bipolar or what, but hang on in there and i'm sure it will pass!.!. go to the doc as well for advice!. Hope you feel better soonWww@Answer-Health@Com

Yeah, I've felt that way alot!. I think you're probably just bored with life right now, and not slipping back into a depression!. Try to find something that makes you happy, whether its a hobby or a TV show that you love to watch!. If you have something that you really enjoy to focus on, things will seem better!. Or at least they do for me!. i love to paint, and when I spend the whole day painting, I feel relieved and happy with everything!.Give it a try!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

actually, im experiencing it right now!. I mean, im on varsity tennis, and we are undefeated!. I dont really care, but act as if i do to motivate my team!. A couple of weeks, my mom's uncle, (this guy was THE coolest guy ever), and i just shrugged it off!. I was like wtf!? whats wrong with me!. Good things have happened, and i dont care!. I dont no whats wrong with me either!. i sure i dont have bipolar disorder or anything!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

Maybe your meds need to be adjusted somewhat!? Talk to the doctor who is prescribing your Depakote and see if you can't get a different med or an additional med that can combat what you're feeling!.

Good luck!Www@Answer-Health@Com

well, I have depression and I know how bad it is!.!.!.I don't have bipolar disorder, but I thought I had!.!.!.anyway, are you taking medicines!?!?!?
If not, then I think that you should go to the doctor and take it, cause it's the best way to control it!.!.!.but also do something in your life!. Stays stopped makes you think bullshits!. I know how's to get bored with everything or to feel as doing nothing!.!.!.but one time you need to face the world that wait for you outside!.

If you are taking medicines, then I think it's better to go to the doctor again and tell him what's happening with you and ask him if it's normal or not, cause each person has a different way to react in a treatment or in a disorder!.!.!.!.


I used to get upset quickly!. I didn't want to stand up from my bed!.!.!.I used to cry a lot!. I used to make "my own world" inside my room and I used to listen songs with my headphone to let me away from everything outside (I KILLED MY FISH CAUSE OF THAT!.!.!.HEHE!.!.I forgot that thing that makes the water to get warm on :P)
I didn't like to study, to do anything at home!.!.!.if I could I would be in my bed for the rest of my life!.!.!.I was feeling like that!.!.!.!.and also with a lot of thoughts in my head!.!.!.I also have it and believe me, it's really bad!.!.!.!.!.!.

If you feel as staying in your own world as I used to do, believe me, I think you should speak with a psychologist, cause this one you can say anything and this one will know what you have and makes you go to another doctor and this doctor will prescribe you the right medicines for you (If you need it)!.!.!.sometimes you just need to talk with someone to feel better and need some support and has nothing better than a psychologist!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
