Hey /adv/,
I've been feeling pretty bitter and jaded and antisocial for the past few months. I've decided to really cut myself off from the world. No social media and not responding to messages. I just graduated a shit college, moved back to my hometown with my mom, been unemployed, and fucking broke. The only money i can get my hands on is through donating plasma. I have zero friends. I didn't make any in college and don't have any in the area. I rarely go out and I'm generally uninterested in talking/"flirting" to women
I've had a history with depression and bipolar disorder and was medicated, but stopped taking them a few months ago since things weren't getting any better. I have a psychiatrist appointment next week and idk if my symptoms are coming back cause my life is shit, but i know something has to change.
Idk what to do /adv/. Should I get back on medication? See a therapist? I don't want this to be my life.

Your last sentence conflicts with the rest of the post.

you're slipping into depression again
cutting yourself off from society is your normal response, but also the worst one you can make. Try doing something different, maybe volunteer or join meetup, hell, go on hikes to get some fresh air
Up to your doctor and you whether you want to get back on medication, I suggest you do.

The only good thing about cutting yourself off is realising that no one would really misses you and the suicidal thoughts creep in...

I have had a few in the past day or so

I had deleted all my social media and blogs about 5 years ago and suicidal thoughts were a (multiple times) daily occurrence
Finally got sick of being sick and sought help.
I probably should seek help again. I know I have no sway in your opinion, but I always recommend therapy to anyone.

You've subscribed to the "block the bad thoughts" mentality, it's why you haven't fixed anything in your life, and it's probably a large contributing factor to you being bipolar.
I have suicidal thoughts daily, and I'm just fine. I really mean that. I know the origin of these thoughts, I know why they come about, and I know their meaning within the greater whole. There is absolutely nothing wrong with their presence. Suppressing it would be denial of reality and self delusion, which is at the root of your rapid emotional shifts; the machinery of the mind allows you to suppress deep mental conflict, but this process has ancillary aspects. Also, you might want to refine your diet, get moderate exercise, and ensure your endogenous histamine secretion isn't elevated from food sensitivies etc.
No matter where you go anon, no matter what it is, no matter when it is, it's all connected.
