    • About Me

      My philosophy in life is changing. I've had bi-polar disorder for the last 5 years. I'm glad I did so much in my life when I was younger. I have had a really cool life. Lots of travel, lots of life experience. When I get down I have the most wonderful memories. I 'm still making wonderful memories, but not at the pace I used too. I take life at my own pace now. I'm doing Ok.

    • Close Bipolar Disorder

      I was diagnosed with bipolar about 6 months ago. I've had hyper mainia twice now. I'm not currently on medication for it, but I've been going through CBT Cognative Behavioural Therapy with it. I'm a bit jumpy at the moment. I keep on thinking maybe I'm getting sick again. Looking for the symptoms around every corner. Both times the symptoms were different, so we don't really have a pattern to follow. They tell me I'm in control of my illness, but I guess it doesn't fell that way to me
