I’ve struggled with overbooking myself during hypomania phases and then backfiring on me once I’ve hit a depressive state. I think even having the slightest bit of stress sends me to a whole mental breakdown. I feel like regular people are able to handle the stress that I’m not able to even handle a bit &amp; it frustrates me so much.

I feel like things will never get “better” with bipolar. I will never feel normal or competent.
