So my friend said that the bipolar thing was just something I was going to use as an excuse for everything, and that it's not rly real, and that I hav control, but that they would take it into account. I feel that wasn't a win. I'm trying not to worry about it.. Accept them with limitations. Realise they are damaged and incapable of another reaction.

Any advice? I would rly appreciate.

I was just diagnosed as bipolar. My friendships are currently suffering as recently hav been very manic, and put my foot in my mouth several times. This was difficult for both myself and them to understand. At the moment I'm being excluded, and gossiped about socially. It feels horrible because I rly do need support right now.

How can I maintain relationships with my illness? I start off with brilliant friendships, but they tend to fall apart because I will go through an episode. At least now I know the problem. Please help me?

I rekindled a friendship with a guy that last yr I stopped being friends with because I felt he made no effort. I became friends with him again a few months ago. He joined my friendship group where I thought I had some rly close awesome friends. I had a fight with my closest friend. Honestly it was a rly small issue until the friend I rekindled my friendship with starting bitching about me to her... He is very manipulative. Things haven't been the same since the fight with me and my best friend. My best friend, and the friend I rekindled my friendship with started getting rly close. Then out of the blue, the friend I rekindled my friendship with decided to get furious with me about God knows.. I felt exhausted by everything and deactivated my fb. I know he has been bad mouthing me to my group of friends and I think they hav all taken his side. They haven't contacted me. The friend I rekindled my friendship with messaged me nasty stuff and said he didn't want to talk to me again. I'm fine with this, but I don't want to lose my other friends. How do I get my best friend back? Should I break the silence and message her? Or give it time?

Me and my best friend had a rly bad fight about a month ago. We made up, but things haven't been the same since the fight. My friend holds a grudge and is slightly passive aggressive. But I love her like a sister and I don't want to lose her. However, recently it is only me who makes the effort. I'm the one who texts her, fb messages her, initiates contact etc. Things aren't the same. I rly want them to b. Please help me get my best friend back?

If I'm told information, I always want to repeat it. I really like getting other people's perspective. I need to cut back on how much I talk about other people.. It doesn't make me look like I can b trusted. I'm just incredibly open! I don't like hiding anything. Help?

I have this friend. He's like my best friend. The problem is he can b a bit of a *****. Talks about me behind my back. Can b quite influential. I introduced him to some of my friends, and now he is in our group. My other closest friend and I had a massive fight. The thing is.. We weren't even really fighting. Something very small happened. We were all good. Then she went to see my other best friend, and the next time I saw her she was enraged. I know he was talking about me.. He told me. He defs influenced her. I kind of regret introducing my friend to my other friends. Things are now weird between me and my closest friend. She now goes to my other friend for everything.. I hate it. I want my relationship to mend with my friend. Help?

I don't know what to do. I go from a high to a low so quickly. When I'm low I become so quiet. I can't get myself out of it, even if I try to b happy. Then the next day I might b so happy and fun to b around. A friend said she was scared to b around me. Recently I have been really moody.. It is often correlated with exams, or serious trauma. I don't want my friends to b scared of me. I also have serious anxiety.

I'm a woman and I find men attractive. Having sex with women does not interest me at all. But I love my friend who is a girl. I don't want to have sex with her, but I think I definitely would if I was a guy. I think she is beautiful, but I also know there are way prettier girls out there, but I personally, think she is particularly beautiful, maybe because of her personality. But I still want to have sex with guys, but with guys I haven't found that connection personality wise. Haha.. It's almost like she would b perfect for me if she was a guy, or I was a guy. This is very weird and confusing to me. Makes me question myself. My friend is straight. So am I- I thought, but then there is this love I have for my friend. But it's not sexual, only intellectual. Please, can someone help me work out what's going on?? I'm really confused.

I'm a uni student and life out of home, but my friend lives with her family. I met my friends parents a few weeks ago. I was nothing but polite, and from what I could see it went well. Then a few weeks later found out my friend had an argument with her parents because they had accused me and being her lesbian lover. I'm not gay, and don't consider gay an insult, but the assumption hurt my feelings. Decided it was better to laugh about it so just make jokes about it now. However, when me and my friend hang out, usually studying, she always gets phone calls harassing her about where she is. So she went home and had a massive fight with her family. Wouldn't tell me what happened which is unusual. But she has told others. And I walked in on her talking about it to someone. Apparently her parents said she is in an abusive relationship, and just because I don't hit her, it's detrimental to her as I take up too much of her time where she should be studying, and I put ideas in her head. She recently dropped a subject, because she wanted to and I'm getting the blame for it. I find it sickening they would say something like that as I have only met them once, was nothing but polite, and have had my own experience with truly abusive relationships (restraining order from my ex bf). My friend is awesome, and I don't want to lose her, but also don't wAnt to mess up her family. I find this whole thing is stressful to me as well. Not sure what to do.

My gpa was pretty good but then I did something really stupid. I convinced myself I was going to fail a subject, so I didn't turn up for the final exam of another subject I had already passed so I could study for it. Yes, I have serious anxiety. Is it possible to fix my gpa or have I just messed everything up?

My roommate is a difficult guy. I think he's got a personality disorder. He's not the greatest looking guy either. In the past he has asked out one of my friends. They rejected him. When I have friends over he likes it because he doesn't have many of his own friends. Anyway, I have this friend and she is lovely- kind, beautiful and intelligent. My roommates and a few others are going to see a movie - of course we asked the difficult roommate if he wanted to come. He wasn't keen until he found out my friend was going. My friend is not interested in my roommate, she is interested in someone else. I don't want my roommate to hit on my friend, or ask her out. It would make it weird when she comes to my house. What can I do?

I have this friend. She's beautiful, smart, and kind. She's also young, sensitive, a little insecure, and maybe cares about looks too much when it comes to people she is interested in. But all in all an amazing person. But she doesn't tend to get interest from guys. When she likes someone she gets probably too invested. The other day this guy rejected her. She's really upset about it. I don't understand why this guy would reject her. This girl is way better than him. She's lovely. This guy is nice looking, but stupid and not that interesting. The reason I ask is if this girl can't get a boyfriend, what chance do the rest of us have? I've had relationships in the past but they've been with horrible people. I just don't understand why this isn't happening for my friend.

Me, my friend, and another friend (they had never met)- went away for a weekend in the city. It was going awesome, everyone was getting along and we were having fun. But something happened. Me and my friend have an odd sense of humour and when we get together we bounce off each other and sometimes go too far. People don't really get us sometimes. Anyway, my other friend really needed to go to the loo and was running around like a crazy person to find one. We were helping her look, but we also laughed at her because she looked ridiculous. Seriously, thought she was going to tackle anyone who got in her way. It was really late at night. I could tell she was getting upset so I told my other friend to stop. When she finally found one, we waited for her, but she obviously exited at a different door, and walked off in the city in the middle of the night. I have serious anxiety (to the point where I'm medicated) and was beside myself. She's only 19, alone in the city, in the middle of the night. Thought she was going to die. My other friend was upset with her. Said she was being really immature. I called her a few times, finally got onto her and when I did I yelled at her and told her to wait where she was. I think she knew she had gone too far, so she didn't oppose. We met up and it was super awkward. I was a mess, I couldn't look at her. My other friend can't handle awkwardness and wanted to leave. She later apologised to both of us but it feels weird between us. I'm still upset.

I'm angry at a friend, so they went to another mutual friend and got them to text me about various issues they have with me. Pretty much told this mutual friend to piss off, and that I'm not in high school anymore, and if this person wants to message me they should do so themselves. I told them not to get involved in this issue, and it's none of their business. Was I justified? Should I apologise or let them come to me?

He tries to make everything a fight.. Tell him to move his stuff off the couch and argues, tell him he can't throw out my food and he argues, he gets louder and louder. If it's not his idea it's a bad idea. Don't know how to handle it anymore. I feel myself getting furious.

Some people don't like me. I don't really care. I can be a little socially awkward, I have major anxiety issues, and say the wrong thing sometimes. But I have a few friends who are awesome people. This one friend is just lovely- everyone likes her and I have heard her be described as perfect. She gets a little shy sometimes, but was never shy around me. She said she got a good feeling about me. I don't understand how she could possibly like me. She is just the best person.. But doesn't have a huge bunch of friends. Why would she choose me?

My brother attempted suicide last yr. he slit his wrist drunk and I had to call the ambulance and police. My mum took a bunch of time of work to watch him. He has a marijuana problem. I was speaking to my mum today and she said it was my fault my brother tried to kill himself, and that I was super obnoxious as a teenager. She said while I'm not a terrible person, I'm still learning how to b a good one. I feel terrible. I really care about people, my friends and family. I really strive to b a good person. I feel like I make people bad. What can I do?

My friend is super obsessed with her appearance. She lacks empathy and says the wrong thing. For example, my lecturer approached me and said the tut would b cancelled due to him having to attend a funeral of a close friend. My friend says "at least ur whole family didn't die in a car accident". She always talks about herself, and I don't think she cares about what's happening in others lives. I did a group assignment with her and ended up doing the whole thing. She lied throughout that whole experience, put me through hell, and has not once apologised or recognised she did the wrong thing. She invites people over to my house for a party then doesn't show up and leaves me to entertain them. I didn't even want people to come over. How do I deal with a person like this? Are they a narcissist?

I have this friend. First .. We worked in a group for a uni assignment. She made me do the whole thing and got the same mark. She does small things deliberately to piss me off- like turns the heater up really high in the car, puts it on a song that she knows I hate, winds the window down when It's freezing. I'm not being paranoid.. She literally told me she does it to teach me a lesson or piss me off. She pretends to have no social skills- makes really racist and inappropriate jokes. For example, something bad happened with my dad (horrible and unusual situation), and now she calls him my "domestic abuse daddy." She invites people to my house.. It's study break at uni and she organised this whole party. Then she didn't turn up and I was left to entertain. I didn't even want these people over to begin with. Just wanted to study myself. Then sends me this abusive text message blaming me for everything. Yesterday did her a favour and handed in her assignment. No thank you. I have a lot of stress at home and personal issues and I feel like I can't deal with her anymore. Unfortunately she's in my social circle. What should I do?

My little brother is an asshole. 15 years old and an absolute dick. My dad is a great guy.. Best father I could hope for. When we were really little he used to have anger issues tho, and it used to be scary when he got mad. He was a little violent. But it's been 15 years since that and he has done nothing since. Honestly the best father anyone could ever hope for. Gentle, kind, generous. But tonight he had a punch up with my 15yr old brother. My little brother was defs a dick. But he didn't deserve what he got. He was punched in the face and started to bleed. My dad feels terrible. This is so strange and out of character for him. I told my dad that while my brother was a dick, he went too far. I told my friend and he's really down on my dad. Honestly I'm a little on my dad's side. My brother is a jerk. What's right in this situation? What should I do?
