Bipolar Disorder Support Group
Bipolar disorder is not just a single disorder, but a category of mood disorders marked by periods of abnormally high energy and euphoria, often accompanied by bouts of clinical depression. This is the place to talk about your experience with bipolar disorder, learn from others' experiences, and find support.
From Loe Babauta's nenhabits.net blog:
A lot of us get stuck in inaction, procrastinating and doing unimportant tasks to avoid the important stuff, worrying about failing or not being perfect, having a hard time starting, getting distracted, and so on.
It is time to form the action habit instead.
1. What are your key actions. Quick, what are your top three actions for today?
2. Pick a key action and quickly visualize the outcome, how it will look when done. Don't spend much time on this, just make a quick picture in your mind.
3. Start, just start. Make "do it now" your mantra. Strip away everything but the task, or the smallest part of the task that you can do now and do it.
4. Focus on the moment, be in the task. Don't worry about the future or mistakes, focus, immerse yourself.
5. Get it done, complete the task. Then feel good about it and pat yourself on the back!
Now, onto the next task. Get in the habit of getting things done.

I miss traveling with my husband. Has anyone found a specific site regarding cruising for widow/widowers or any sightseeing trips. Not interested in being with couples and kids,,,I realize a cruise ship will have a portion size of families and couples, but perhaps they also put together a part of the cruise ship for groups of widows/widowers????

A friend sent this to me..As far as I can see, grief will never truly end.It may become softer overtime, more gentleand some days will feel sharp.But grief will last as long as Love does - ForeverIt's simply the way the absence of your loved onemanifests in your heart. A deep longing accompaniedby the deepest Love some days. The heavy fog mayreturn and the next day, it may recede.Once again, it's...
Thanks,
