Bipolar Disorder Support Group

This is the place to talk about your experience with bipolar disorder, learn from others' experiences, and find support.
Do you do this a lot? I used to do it all the time and it always made me feel like $hit.
I think of this cause i see some posts along those lines; I think it's a form of self-torture that is so hard to avoid.
Like "I should be married, have kids, etc etc". I've let go of comparasins and 'shoulds' and god, do I feel better.

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
And regrets - well, I try not to have any - My philosophy is that I can't regret my past because it brought me to where I am today. I may not like myself sometimes, but I love myself and I think I'm a pretty cool person. Without my past, I wouldn't have my husband or daughter.

It's the 'theoretical me'...the man I was before I needed to go to hospital.
That's rarer...but that guy would have done okay in life, although it's impossible to say.
Just in momentary lapses of positivity, I find myself daydreaming.Then I wake up and smell the bullshit and get on with the better 'souled' me.

I'm finally after 5 years getting stronger and doing several projects again, but I don't think I'll ever be at the level I once was. And, I even go off meds a and play with because I'm chasing the hypomanic high. (no lectures please -- I know, I should practice what I preach!)
