I have a close friend that is bi-polar, he is going though manic depression, he wont answer his phone, his messages. Me and my close friend Graham, are trying to let him know that we are there for him, we both have dropped by his house to see if he is there, we are worried that we both are pushing him and it might have a negative output, we both want to let him know that we are both there there for him. we have let him know this information. we are both clueless on what to do next, without him feeling that we are pushing him his boundries. how can we help him, after all we have done?
He will feel like no - one is like him and no - one understands what he feels like. If i were you i'd go round again, knock for him a few times and if he answers - either sit and have a chat with him, just let him get it all out, or try to distract him. If he doesn't - take a card or a note and pop it through his door to let him know yoiu're thinking of him - then he can always look at that and know his friends are there for him.
I agree with Nicole. let him know, no matter what, you are there for him. Bi-Polar is quite hard and even if you know someone is there for you, it is extremely hard to feel at ease. just take it a day at a time. I will advise, don't baby him (oh are you okay, is there anything wrong, anything i can get for you) people like us will feel worse. treat him like you would any other day. good Luck!
nice to hear you care --
prayer sincerre prayer will help and all of this --what is paramount is to choose your healing route------ carefully-- be really aware that the conventional treatment for this can be horrendous and you can go on for years with no improvement and massive damaging detrimental side effects from meds . do read this very carefully and try and understand the principles behind what is being said .
Evaluate all of this info well –this info will save you years of suffering ---years if you apply it ..
This will educate you on our health care system and its dire limitations
All treatment recommended by the doctors should be tested and approved and quite rightly so.
That makes sense right .it costs millions to test and approve treatments because of the possible damage to people..
Drug companies Fund most research and will only and I mean only look at treatments, which show the promise of good deal of a profit, --they will actively dismiss any therapy which does not have profit potential— thus your doctor will only recommend therapies with profit in them.
Despite the fact that some of these other therapies mentioned do have overwhelming benefits some, which have saved needless amputations, needless pain and trauma, and much loss of life. Drugs are not the answer for depression with mind altering chemicals or any other mental illness. This is a fundamental principle and unless you grasp this fully –you could /will have years of suffering ahead of you .
This does not help you though when you are ill and suffering—not hearing about therapies which can help from a person you look up to and trust Have you heard your local doctor recommend, Massage Spiritual healing, Herbs, Light therapy,Colour therapy,the violet ray therapy, Osteopathy, Electrical Frequency devices.
These therapies will work for many complaints of a so called mental nature
we have thousands of testimonials and results showing years of successful applications
Do this and I will guarantee improvements to you inside a day its that simple, of course getting these things in place can be much harder. each therapy can have a very beneficial influence on you.
Print this all off save it and enact it and share it --- of course someone to help you get these therapies in your life is invaluable but do not be swayed by them trying for short cuts ….
1,get someone to massage your back and legs at least 3 times a week use peanut oil or a mix of 50-50 olive and peanut oil.
2 use the violet ray machine an Edgar Cayce device google search this --- 3 times a week on the other days especially on the spine….we use it every day with very positive results
3.get a tent sleep out side 3times a week utilising earth energy - nature can help big time especially with how you feel how much energy you have
4 study and apply good nutrition-- adequate minerals all of them particularly calcium and magnesium iron essential fatty acids omega 3 6 9 protein etc
5 ensure your thyroid is working well
7 ensure you do at least I hr per day some kind of voluntary work when you are able..the reasons you are ill , or poor or have allsorts of bad things happen to you is because of karma -----usually from past lives but some from this one –voluntary work will offset your mistakes--- how much it offsets well that is down to god and how much you do. Healing us is in direct proportion to the help we give others ie your healing comes with helping others achieve theirs so if people are doing very little in helping others ---they suffer more and longer...and if they are doing a lot they get well faster....so now you know what to do ,,and like a lot of us are already doing being of service.
8 be amongst people who are giving, friendly who have time for you who love you , choose your friends well
9 be or get to a place which personally love or like
10 get and do some work which you like or love
11 ensure you do no acts which hurt or inflict on anyone –don’t want to add to your karma do we !!!
12 spiritual healing yes and reiki -.
13think good positive thoughts, laughter, look at comedy, play good uplifting music,
14 avoid at all costs exposure to violence, murders, suffering ,death ,tragedies, -feed upon good things uplifting things, things that feel like a breath of fresh air..
15 Positive affirmation- that’s right programme your self in the mirror , thoughts are things words are things actions are things , all have influence, few people realise these things can have an effect on themselves .
16 a detox ------ toxins can influence how you feel big time
17 hugs get plenty of them in your daily life you would be amazed at how people feel after a few decent hugs….
18 loads of exercise running walking climbing but something which you enjoy
19 rid yourselves of all aspartame laden foods and drink and many additives get back to a wholesome organic diet diet
a total cure however is tied up w
He knows that you are there for him and if he doesn't want to talk right now there isn't a lot you can do. It can make things worse if you become pushy and keep on at him. unless you're concerned that he is a risk to himself them it may be better to just let him come to you when he wants to be around you or chat to you. perhaps right now he is just feeling really down and doesn't want to chat to anyone. when I'm in a depressive episode I find that I just want to lock myself away, not come out my house or talk to anyone or anything - I'm a total different person and sometimes people who keep asking me how I am really annoy me cos I just want left alone cos I feel so down. That's just me though. maybe just give things a few days and see how things go. when he's ok perhaps ask him what would help him when he's ill and what doesn't help so in the future you don't worry as much and you feel able to help him. I did that with my friend and now we both know how to help each other when we're unwell.
It's really difficult in this situation. he will know that you have both been trying to get in touch, and that is really all you can do right now. has he got anyone else looking out for him - if he is living alone and is not communicating with you then try and find out if someone else is in contact with him. Other than that you will just have to sit it out - keep in contact - maybe each of you day about - leave a message on his phone, or by email if he logs on, or slip a note saying Hi through the door. when he is over the worst and is a bit more communicative have a conversation with him about this - ask him what you should do, and how you can best help if he has another bad spell. You need to remember as well that he probably won't recall what went on while he was ill.
How do i help a friend who is a bi-polar?
