What are good ways to calm down?
I have bipolar and borderline personality disorder and when I freak out and I loose my temper when more difficult to calm myself unless they take medication to chill out .. And I've tried to do a lot of things. Like throwing ice cubes in a tub … writing in a journal … And idk .. It seems like nothing works! PLEASE HELP!
Since I am not a therapist or doctor I would just say take your medicine as directed. I do not think the medication is a bad thing at all. In any event you should consult your doctor or referral to a specialist and can speak with them about other options to calm down, in addition to medication. Good luck
