Unreliable?

Anyone else constantly making and breaking plans (telling others that you would love to do something and not fulfilling your promises)? It has become a significant problem for me and I was wondering if I was alone in this plight.

Oh and I thought it was just me being lazy. I have cancelled so many appointments and outings with friends due to moods and energy and anxiety. Thank god I now know why.
Thanks for this subject.

I think it would probably be hard for anyone with bipolar to be consistant. Bipolar dissorder in itself  is anything but consistant except for the fact that there is always inconsistancies. None of us can know how we will feel or what we can do one day from the next. Ever changing....

OMG, I totally get where you're coming from about the unreliability!!! It's such a nuisance and the guilt is chronic!! I've lost touch with so many people because of it :( I'm totally afraid to commit to anything and that ***** because I really want to work :( Has anyone found a good therapy got this? I don't like schedules or list (sorry surprisedbytwo

I've learned not to make promises anymore. I dropped everything except my family commitments and only do other things when I'm well which is a major let down for my son as I don't get involved at school unless I can jut rock up and do it. I learned my lesson when I lost two jobs in 1 week for just not rocking up...

I usually try to avoid plans that way I don't have to get out of it. Being around certain people is a a lot of work. The only way I get through it is being pushed constantly by hubby or family. My mood reflects my energy level. Find support & try thinking positive, easier said than done.
