Odd, this is the first post i've seen on this site without an "is it normal" button. It makes it kinda hard to respond to. Well you clearly need to spice up your life. Read some articles, Join meetups, become a member of a forum, and make new friends and if worst comes to worst, you could always move to another city to give life a new glow. Realize that what u see around u isn't the world as a whole but your region of influence, and life you guide. Im sure your life would be very different if you had a different job, school and family, or if you lived in a different geographic region, you only think u are trapped.
It is a option for gold members where you can do a discussion only option with no is it normal or not. I've moved and been all over the place and yes initially it helps but eventually this feeling always finds a way to creep back up. I know a lot of it has to do with being bipolar but there has to be another way. I always say I think I would be most happy living in the woods by myself surviving on my own skills. Not worrying about what society thinks or needs from me.
It that's how you want to live, you need to put some effort into learning the necessary skills and in doing that, I'll bet you'll meet some like minded people.
I know many people with bipolar who live full and useful lives including some celebrities - eg Stephen Fry and heaps of others I can't think of at the moment.
No bipolar support groups anywhere near you? Have you looked for one?
I definitely agree with you. I have a hard time explaining what I mean. It isn't necessarily society just how life works and the way things flow more or less. I feel like I don't fit into that and I have a hard time adjusting to it. To me I just feel like life can't be going to school, then college, then you get married and have kids. That is so not me. I don't know :( I can't fully explain what I mean. Unfortunately there isn't. I lost my insurance back in January and I haven't had any therapy or medication since. I was doing okay now not so much now.
To want to escape.

But you just did respond. How did not having a button make typing this repsone any harder?
