Stay hydrated. -Drink a variety of teas. Lately it's Easy Now from Traditional Medicinals together with green tea. I make a thermos full and sip it at work. Still have decaf coffee now and then because decaf comes in many good beans from my local roasters! -Exercise. I ride a bike as much as I can. -Stay grounded with family and friends -Keep music and art in my life. -Eat on time, eat healthy. -Regular bed time and wake ups. I take a magnesuim/calcium drink at night to stay asleep. -Follow through with all the above no MATTER how shitty I feel...that's the key.

Love your avi, as usual. Got any good riding in yet this season? I've been out a bit, but not enough for my liking yet...
hey man! remember i said i was gonna write some lyrics with you in mind as you were dealing with some stuff awhile ago? well, i did write a poem today that i think kinda hits at what i was trying to say, or waht i wanted to say. i posted it in my journal - go check it out! i really mean it - that's what i would have liked to have been able to offer - hope the image helps. take care! i'm off to a hermitage this weekend - to commune with some monks at this Benedictine abbey.
hey man! sorry, haven't checked out how you are doing - hope you are much better - you deserve to be! i tried to finish up that song but somehow instead wrote a new one - i was trying to make it a song for healing, & what i ended up doing is setting the latin text of the Hail Mary (Ave Maria) to it. i dunno, man - i'm in some weird spiritual vortex - i get these really high spiritual highs, & then this awful gross malaise that feels like its my own ego/shit creeping all over me. yesterday i met the Archbishop here - he is a really wonderful man - & today i feel all seperated from God & sick in my own skin. i feel sincerely nauseous & i don't understand.
hey yalla, i guess your already taking the B's....you know, i think i was a little hasty in saying that alcoholism does not bring out bi polar...i don't think it actually brings out bp...but i do think it can bring out alot of symptoms...and who knows..it could trigger bp..i'm no expert, so i don't know....yalla, i read you are taking fish oils,3000 per day...you mean you are taking 3000 mg per day total? i am just taking my meds right now, finally , after many, many years...but i have a friend who wants to take fish oil..she's having a real hard time with depression right now..and i wanted to try to help her find a dose..that will help her feel better...we may actually start taking them together...if you could , would you message me and let me know when you get a chance? hey, yalla, have you heard of "holy basil" or "tulsi",it is an indian basil, very gentle and completely benign...and it is said to help balance the moods, and also be very calming...i bought some, but was so all over the place without taking meds..i never carried through with anything...but this may be another help for your anxiety..i think the company "new chapter" makes a good one, but you can find out at the health food store...anyway, a hug for you yalla...hope you feel better soon, love, maggie
