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.
How do you guys hold onto your center? I make a plan in my head to set out in life with new principles guiding me for saving money and taking better care of my life and then poof! It’s like I’m a rubber band that bounces back and disarms me from that!
I'm starting to see the relationship with form and feeling. I have an image in my head that can guide me to a certain extent but then it's real important to recognize I'm feeling things too. Perhaps accepting my road ahead with humility and kindness is a way to just keep it real enough to 'hold it all together.':)

Once again I've had a fever today. I'm not going to the hospital because that's a huge waste of time but I did schedule a dr appointment for Wednesday afternoon.

For me, I've Come To Accept Routines Don't Work For Me, I end up disappointing myself over and over again.
I made a decision to walk around my block every day, some days I'm able and some days not...the gift to me is I'm focused on when I do walk.
I need to save like crazy for something I really want, but is out of my control of $$$, I am going to be happy No Matter Which Way The Outcome Arrives, as I will have a clean / cleared out house. I will either be moving into a home I want, or I'll boost the price so the seller, my neighbor of some 15 years will get more $$$ which will make me happy. I've qualifed for a loan, so I'll still get the loan and make improvements to my current home. Knowing I've done what I can, will accept the outcome, Knowing The Outcome Is For My Highest Good.
As for Peaceful Life, I've found ""Letting Go Of Control""" of Anything that is Not Me is my route to Peace.
I think if what you want is In Your Highest Good, then you'll find ways to promote the outcome you want. <3
I've sure done a lot of hitting my head against a wall over the years not accepting the things I can't control
I think the Serenity Prayer is wisdom
Sending hugs....xo
I have a routine, structured, and without it my life and my mind would be chaos!
Personally, I'd like to shore up those things that Can be controlled, so I feel better about my life.
There are always things that will come along to disrupt our plans. I,am trying to take those things more calmly and not fall apart when they happen.
....at least Some of the things, lol
Keep reaching for your center every day, Mark- don't give up!
