Hi All,

Well this is July 5th and I'm still hypo, maybe just a little but it's keeping me out of bed and I'm functioning.  This is great news because it's never lasted this long and I'm enjoying it while I can.

I saw my new therapist, two days ago.  I don't know yet if I like him due to the fact that he is quite young, I'll know more the following sessions.  He did seem to know a lot about b-polar and so I feel comfortable that he knows what it's like for me.  He also mentioned schizoid - affected because I hear voices and no one else had ever mentioned this to me.  So maybe he'll work out, we'll see.  I'm starting to look into natural alternative medicine.  I need to find a natural herbalist with credentials that can help me put together a program of herbs, yoga, accupunture, meditation, etc.  Since I can't take meds besides Prozac, I think I would like to try something else.  When and if I find such a person, I will keep you posted.

Hope everyone had a happy July 4th.  We had a barbeque here in the complex where I live with life music, it was fun.  Ate too much though but it's okay, I don't do that everyday.  And of course we got to see the fireworks from here.  We're way high in the hills so we can see them free just by sitting or standing outside..too bad they only lasted 20 minutes.

So take care everyone and be good to each other.
