Exhausted. Heading towards the dark place again.

A

I pushed myself a little too far recently and have ended up completely exhausted. I have diagnoses of bipolar and cPTSD. Flashbacks and other ptsd stuff already getting worse and I can feel  my mood dropping and risk to self increasing. I'm awaiting formal ASD diagnosis but psychologist is very confident I meet criteria. Struggling with the fact that my life will always be this way: hospital admissions, exhaustion, medication, low functioning, ect. 

Hello, by the way, I'm new here!

    Nice to meet you :) 

    I'm not surprised that this is a common place we find ourselves in. My mental illnesses have ruined my life in many ways, but recently realising I'm autistic makes things make much more sense. However, I don't know whether I feel more or less hopeful now. It's a confusing time, I guess.
