They certainly do.
I had an epiphany two days ago, made plans and started working on them. I knew there was a lot to do but I was motivated and felt like I could do it. Today was dedicated to being productive at work; instead I lost the day to a meltdown due to frustration with a person, something not completely turning out as I hoped it would which then quickly spiraled into the philosophy of uncertainty and my inability to handle it, then some more frustration with another person, and as usual, elaborate frustration and disappointment with myself.

I then wrote a post (which I never posted) revolving around said frustration et al and my new plan of going on a search for a nice cozy lake to drown myself in thoroughly and finally. Instead, I took a nap and now I'm procrastinating because I've lost so much time already.

Does bipolar depression feel the same as unipolar depression? Because if so, then I can relate.

With no frame of reference... I don't know... Mixed bipolar, however, kind of doesn't feel like anything else in the world... We are capable of manic and depressive... at the same time.

i'm with you guys, the depression from bipolar is probably about the worst thing that god ever invented. It's important not to isolate though. Getting support from peers is probably the best remedy for depression. Never forget that there is a light at the end of the tunnel!

Ummm... since I don't catch the reference and meaning... it's just humor
