Someone on the bipolar baord brought up this question. I'm not really sure what answer she was looking for and by the time I ended by response to her I realized I was pretty offended by the question. She was gathering info to share with executives in hope of ending the stigma against bipolar. There is no way someone who doesn't deal with bipolar can possible comprehend the daily...

Still sick yet still standing tall.
No matter how out of control my life might be
I won't let myself fall.
Still in pain yet still laughing through the tears.
Never backing down throughout the years.
Still tired yet still strong.
Relying on my inner strength to get me along.1 Recommendation10 Comments -

My first Manic Episode: Chapter 1
I am sitting on a chair at my friend’s house. I was feeling fine until I took my prescribed dose of my meds. The doctor raised them because I was depressed, suicidal, and anxious. The next thing I know I act all crazy. I tear my favorite poster apart and rearrange the letters in the words on my friend’s table. ...3 Recommendations6 Comments -

I got a card given to me recently and wanted to share the poem inside.
Wisdom from the Father
Peace within your home
The fellowship of Christians
In whatever land you roam
Blessings all along the path
That God leads you to choose
The sheild of faith before you
As you spread the Lord's good news

My husband wishes I would love myself
Maybe if I loved my self I wouldn't be filled with self doubt
Maybe if I loved myself I would learn to trust more
Maybe if I learned to love myself motives wouldn't be a question
Maybe if I loved myself his love wouldn't always be in question
Maybe if I learned to love myself the libido would return

There Ia a Reason for Everything:
By: Helen Steiner Rice
Our Father knows what's best for us,so why should we complain?
We always want the sunshine,but He knows there must be rain.
We love the sound of laughter and the merriment of cheer,
But our hearts would lose their tenderness if we never shed a tear.
Our Father test us often with suffering and with sorrow;
He test us not to punish us but t...2 Recommendations4 Comments -
