Q: IT IS VERY DIFFUCULT TO WORK IN A WORK ENVIORMENT EVERY THING AND EVRY ONE PISSES ME OFF
Hi there Che
I am going to add to what Judy has told you by telling you some of the strategies I use. One is to imagine myself with horse blinders on. Only attend to the things right in front of your nose. People are always going to be doing things which may upset you but you don't have to take it all in.
The other thing is to ask yourself...is what I am angry about...will it matter tomorrow? A month from now? A year from now? Quite often it won't matter in the long run. Pick and choose your battles.
Lower your stress by only being responsible for...what you actually are responsible for at your job. Don't take on other people's issues.
What sort of work do you do? May we ask?
Also...we have a Bipolar site here on Health Central for you to visit as well and you may find it by following this link.
I do hope you stay on with us and write about your experience with having this mood disorder.
Hang in there!
Che, just happened to check back and saw your note about going to a counselor. Hope it went well. I think just about everyone feels nervous the first time you see one, you are not alone.
It sounds like you have so much stress going on; taking care of someone 24/7 is very taxing. I hope your therapist can help you figure out a way to get some relief. It's good that you pray, that helps a lot of people.
Write again any time, would like to hear how you're doing.

Hello, Che. I think I know how you feel. I used to feel like that a lot in my job and I was lucky enough to finally hit the right age and years of service to get my pension and run. However, I have to ask you if you have seen a doctor for your depression, because that's very important. Is there someone you can talk to about it? I don't know where you work, but sometimes they have some kind of employee resources that can refer you to counseling or a doctor. Once you start dealing with the depression, that does usually help. Maybe there are some other things you can do to relieve the stress - I don't know enough about you to make any realistic suggestions. Try to remember that it is probably the depression talking, the anger is probably not all about everyone else, even if it may seem to be the case at times.
Don't know if this was much help, but hope you will talk to a professional about it because you probably don't want to lose your job because you're so angry, at least until you could maybe find another one. Maybe there are things at your job that are intolerable but even with that, it's a good idea to see your doctor. Feel free to write again if you need to.

Che, the good thing is that you are recognizing what is going on with the bipolar; you say you were diagnosed, so can we assume you are still seeing a doctor? Maybe it's time to talk to him/her about medication, if you are on some maybe you need a change. I know it's hard to deal with little kids when you're not feeling well and then work in an anxiety-producing environment. What kind of stuff is going to happen at work? I hope you will be seeing a professional soon so that you can get some relief. Thanks for checking back in and I hope you will again.
