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.
Spirituality is an awakening --
or is it all the loose ends woven together into a mellow fabric? . . .
It's patience in the face of stupidity.
It's feeling that you want to knock somebody's head off --
and walking away instead. . .
It's wearing dungarees that feel like a tuxedo.
It's wanting to go home, yet being there. . .
It's the awareness that survival is a savage fight between you and yourself.
It's a magnetic pull toward those who are down and out.
It's knowing that even the bad times are good. . .
The singular thing that is spirituality cannot be given to a fellowman
by word of mouth.
If every man is to have it, then every man must earn it,
in his own way, by his own hand, stamped by the seal of himself,
in his own individual right.

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...
