@hilannie62 What you just said was so beautiful that it made me cry. I completely understand. I suffer from bipolar disorder and I often feel the same. Please don't give up. You are not alone. You are a beautiful person, Only a truly beautiful heart can describe a friend the way you did. The song in your heart can be heard again, it is still there, your heart remembers it, so let your heart sing it to you and you will re-learn it.

I feel weak, weaker than everyone else because I cannot get up every morning, don't feel like brushing my teeth or doing anything else until in the afternoon. I am a failure. My husband works hard to give me all the expensive things that I want because he is so anxious to make me happy. But I still don't feel happy. I live with this melancholia sort of high and lows and I am so lonely. Bipolar Disorder is awful but I want to fight it. I want to live a normal life and do things just like everyone
