"Try not to deny or suppress your emotions, but just discover for yourself what it takes for you to handle your emotions and stay balanced."

Clouds Mood
Wednesday, June 3, 2009 | An Inspiring story
Years ago in 1969 I experienced my first year long depression. My life was changing so fast with out understanding of what I would next experience ...a pending mania,

So I looked at "clouds" one Day and heard Neil Diamond (in depression,too, sing) ..."Both Side Now."

Lyrics ...Both Sides Now :
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kGp...

It was not until 1984 that my "Clouds" disappeared .....and my stability was achieved.
Clouds don't last forever.....and bipolar disorder does not have to.....either.

    Clouds don't last forever do they? What a year for music. Depression is always helped by music. Im sorry it took you so long to get stable. I'm happy you are on the road to recovery!

    The analogy of clouds in this song,is so perfect for a bipolar state of mind.Depending on which side of the cloud you are on,determines your outlook...very apt.Thanks for posting your personal experience ,from both sides of the clouds
