> So, I ask, as a person whose moods can be quite overwhelming and just plain crazy-how do you manage a healthy amount of concern for others in such states.
Its hard. When the moods get intense your attention is captured by that and its oh so hard to focus on anything else.
But... Focusing on other things can be what you need (as a short term getting through strategy). It can be hard... But if I MAKE myself then it can help me feel better. And if other people feel helped / appreciate my posts then that helps me feel better.
