Empathy/being empathic & a rough week

The blog below goes more in depth than the video. I was a little scatter brained when doing the video. 😊 https ://youtu.be/ gegEVVyGK1I I've had a rough week or so. Before I was on medication I fairly frequently would have what I refer to as "crazisodes". This, I now understand, were manic episodes. I haven't had any since I started my medication. I was close this weekend. It wasn't as horrible as it used to be, but it was very emotional and exhausting. It didn't help that I wasn't sleeping well (which is common) so it all accumulated and made things worse. However, I did not have the extreme anger like I used to. I didn't have the desire to hurt myself or hit or throw things. So it was still better than it used to be, but it was still hard. Another thing I've dealt with, with my depression, is severe lack of self worth. And that was another thing I was battling. It's so hard when I feel like I'll never be enough, I'll never be good
