The last few months I was at home were the same way. Moving out was one of the best decisions I ever made. My relationship with my parents is so much better.
So if you can make it happen, do it. Crossing my fingers everything happens for the best for you. :)
I was hoping your lack of updates was because things were going well for you. Looks like my hopes were wrong.
I gotta ask what you mean by "going back to Flint". Moving back there or going back mto U of M Flint? Remember there is a 2 year gap in when were in contact so I'm not sure what you mean.
Hopefully your trip to the doctor will be beneficial. Maybe going back on meds is the right thing and maybe it isn't. As of a month or so ago you really seemed to be turning the corner and getting back on track.
Ummmm no, you don't want to live on the streets. Not the streets of Flint for sure! LOL
Don't forget that your family is going through a lot of trauma right now with your dad being so sick so that is actually normal. I'm not defending them but it is understandable that relationships in your family will be strained right now.
Hang in there Nicole. You are going to be alright in the end. You have a TON going for you and those things will get you through this bad time.

UMFlint. I already live here. Trip was not beneficial, except that I'm not dying. Still don't know if I have arthritis. Never mentioned bipolar. Going to the dr is a waste of time.
I understand. And I also understand that I'm going insane. I can't even make plans anymore because they always get ruined by something I have to do for the family. It's ridiculous.

I talked to the people at UMFlint, and they think I've got a shot at getting into their program. It's cheaper, and it's closer, so it was definitely worth looking into

Hey Nicole, I found out much to my surprise that one of my friends has been diagnosed as clinically depressed for many years and I looked up depression online to look for symptoms that may match hers. Much to my surprise, one of the symptoms of depression is severe joint pain which sounds like what you have

There's no need for me to update. I'm just one big ball of angry.
Bipolar is a sort of depression - the other term for it is manic-depressive...because you flip between being manic and depressed. So I'm either ecstatic and pumped and irritable, or sad and angry.

HOLY. SHIT. That second line opened my eyes to what yet another of my internet friends may be suffering from. I've never seen anything like this person.....from the highest of highs one minute to the depths of despair the next. And it happens all day.....every day

Basically, it blows.
I'm still alive though, no worries :)
